Welcome!

I am a PhD candidate in economics at the Paris School of Economics.

My research interests lie at the intersection of development economics, political economy and economic history, with a particular focus on the Middle East.

Next fall, I will join the London School of Economics as an Assistant Professor at the Department of International Development. In 2024, I will also become an Academy Scholar at Harvard.
