SHORT BIO
Hi! I served as a Post-Doc Research Fellow (Assegnista di Ricerca Post-dottorato) in the Department of Economics and Statistics of the University of Naples Federico II from November 2022 to January 2026. Previously, I had a 2-year position as a Research Fellow in the Department of Economics and Statistics of the University of Salerno. I earned my Ph.D. in Economics at the Department of Economics and Statistics of the University of Naples Federico II, where I worked under the supervision of Prof. A. Acconcia.
I am an empirical economist whose research interests mostly lie in Labour Economics, Public Economics, and their intersection.
