I am a Research Economist at Banque de France, working in the Directorate for European and Multilateral Policies (European Relations Division).
I hold a PhD in Economics from Trinity College Dublin (2025), where I was supervised by Agustín Bénétrix and Davide Romelli. My PhD thesis explored the interplay between international macroeconomic dynamics and inequality in wealth and income. A brief summary of some of my PhD work can be found here.
My research interests lie in Macroeconomics and Financial Economics, spanning a broad range of topics such as European integration and economic policy, international macroeconomics, wealth and income inequality, monetary economics, and household finance.
You can learn more about my research here and find my CV here.
Previously, I've held positions at the European Central Bank (International Policy Analysis), the Central Bank of Ireland (Irish Economic Analysis), and University College Dublin (School of Economics). I hold a MSc in Economics from Heidelberg University and a BSc in Economics & Business from the University of Milano-Bicocca.
