I am a Visiting Scientist at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and hold a PhD in Migration Studies from the University of Oxford, where I was an ESRC Scholar with an Advanced Quantitative Methods award. My research sits at the intersection of development economics, public policy, and migration, with a particular focus on experimental and quasi-experimental methods.

My research examines how displaced populations respond to economic shocks and how humanitarian interventions shape household welfare and local markets. 

At Oxford, I taught quantitative methods on the MSc in Migration Studies for four years and worked as a Researcher and Fieldwork Coordinator with the Refugees Economic Programme, overseeing large-scale data collection in displacement settings.

Before my doctoral studies, I spent seven years with the International Organization for Migration (IOM), where I led primary research on migration and displacement across South and Central Asia.

Beyond academia, I have written for national and international newspapers and co-founded VEC, an independent annual magazine published in English and Italian.
