I am a Ph.D. Candidate in the Department of Economics at the University of California, Davis, where I am affiliated with the UC Davis Global Migration Center.

Prior to moving to California, I worked as a researcher at fRDB. I hold a B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Economics and Social Sciences from Bocconi University. 

I am an applied economist specializing in labor and personnel economics, with a focus on migration. My current work explores the role of employers and personal networks for refugees' labor market integration.

I will be on the 2025/2026 academic job market.
