I am a Ph.D. student in Finance at the EPFL (École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne) and SFI (Swiss Finance Institute). My research focuses on Empirical Corporate Finance, particularly delving into areas such as Innovations, Innovation Measurement, R&D, and Private Equity. I focus on understanding the heterogeneity of innovations and the effects of acquired technologies on companies.
Prior to my doctoral study, I earned a B.A. in Mathematics and Mechanics followed by an M.A. in Economics from the New Economic School.
