About

I'm a fourth-year PhD Student in Economics Networks and Business Analytics (ENBA) at IMT School For Advanced Studies Lucca

I'm interested in applying tools and theories from Behavioral Economics, Experimental Economics, Microeconometrics and Data Science to conduct research on real-world problems

I had the chance to collaborate with Lucca Crea, CINI - Consorzio Interuniversitario Nazionale per l'Informatica, AVIS Toscana and Toscana Life Science(TLS).
