I am an Assistant Professor (tenure-track) of Statistics at the Department of Mathematics and Physics, University of Campania “Luigi Vanvitelli”. I hold a Ph.D. in Economics (Econometrics) from the University of Naples “Federico II”, and I serve on the faculty board of the Doctoral School in Social and Economic Sciences at Sapienza University of Rome.
My research lies at the intersection of computational statistics and econometrics, with a focus on the analysis of complex temporal data. This includes time series and panel data with spatial, network, or grouped structures, as well as interval-valued time series. Of particular interest is the development of clustering and forecasting methods, with main applications to economics and finance. However, I also contribute to interdisciplinary projects on environmental and industrial time series analysis and forecasting.
I have published over 50 peer-reviewed articles in scientific journals, including the International Journal of Forecasting, Quantitative Finance, Studies in Nonlinear Dynamics & Econometrics, Computational Statistics, and Spatial Statistics, among others. According to ResearchGate, I am ranked among the top 2% of worldwide scholars (across all fields) with my first paper published in 2018, and ScholarGPS places me in the top 10% of researchers in statistics, and in the top 2% considering the last five years of activity.
I have mainly taught courses in statistics and statistical computing, statistical learning, time series analysis and forecasting, experimental statistics, and applied econometrics. I am a consultant and member of the International Institute of Forecasters, and a member of both the International Statistical Institute and Italian Statistical Society.
