My Personal Website

Ph.D.  Candidate in Applied Economics and Management

University of Pavia joint with University of Bergamo

Born in Caserta, at 18 I decided to move to Rome for my Bachelor of Science in Business Administration at the University of Rome Tor Vergata, one of the first bachelor courses in Italy to be entirely taught in English. 

I then graduated in 2019 in the Master of Science in International Business and entrepreneurship at the University of Pavia, which heightened my already developed appreciation for interacting with multiple cultures.

After a brief experience in consulting, in October 2020 I started my Ph.D. journey. My doctoral research investigates how GVCs can achieve resilience in order to minimize the impact of environmental uncertainty factors.

Current Research Interests: International business, GVC, production networks, resilience
