Hi! I work as a research officer at the International Labour Organization (ILO). I conduct research on child labour, forced labour, and human trafficking in collaboration with the International Organization for Migration (IOM).

I completed my PhD in economics at University College Dublin. My dissertation covers topics in the economics of migration and labour economics. I presented three papers focusing on the returns to human capital of a disadvantaged population - asylum seekers and refugees - utilising a unique administrative dataset from Switzerland.

My main research interests are migration, labour, and development economics. Please find my most recent short CV here.
