I am a postdoctoral researcher at the ifo Institute and LMU Munich, where I am part of the Center for Labor and Demographic Economics. I hold a PhD in Economics from the Università della Svizzera italiana. As a first-generation graduate, I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Economics from the University of Naples Parthenope and a Master's degree from the University of Bologna. In 2023, I was a visiting scholar at the Department of Economics at the University of California, Berkeley.
I am an applied microeconomist focusing on labor economics. I analyze how local labor market shocks, such as automation and tourism, influence labor market dynamics and education.
My work has been published in peer-reviewed journals and featured in The Economist, LSE Business Review, and LaVoce.info.
