Driven by philosophical studies on rationality and decision-making, I have widened my education and fields of interests to psychology and economics to integrate these three disciplines into a broader, interdisciplinary approach. To enhance my insights into behavioural and experimental economics, as well as into psychology, I have studied not only economic but also psychological aspects of decision-making processes. My long-term goal is to integrate my previous experiences in philosophy and establish a specific research niche of experimental economics inspired not only by psychology but also by philosophical reflection on key issues such as gender and values.
