Welcome to my personal website!

    I am an associate researcher in Economics, working and collaborating with the Alma Mater Studiorum – University of Bologna and the ORIGINS Research Group, as well as the University of Macedonia and the University of Luxembourg. Additionally, I am a research fellow at the Global Labor Organization (GLO). Currently, I serve as the Managing Editor for the Cambridge Elements in Law, Economics, and Politics. Previously, I held a post-doctoral position at the University of Luxembourg (Dept. of Economics and Management), conducted a visiting research stay at the LIS Data Center, and worked as a research assistant at the University of Macedonia. I hold a Ph.D. in Economics, an M.Sc. in Economic Analysis and Policy, and a B.Sc. in Economics with a specialization in Applied Economics and Quantitative Methods from the University of Ioannina.

    My primary research interests lie in Applied Macroeconomics and Political Economy, with particular emphasis on Institutional and Cultural Economics. I also pursue secondary interests in Applied Microeconomics, Socio-Economic Demographics, and Historical Persistence, supported by extensive experience in survey data analysis and manipulation.

    Across these domains, my research seeks to advance the development of more resilient and better-informed societies. I examine the long-term implications of socio-economic, climatic, and geopolitical shocks, historical legacies, and cultural dynamics, providing insights into how inclusive societies form, how trust in political institutions evolves, and how European integration and social cohesion can be strengthened. My work aims to connect rigorous academic research with policy relevance, contributing to a deeper understanding of complex societal processes.
