RESUME
I am a PhD Candidate in Economics at the Université Libre de Bruxelles, and I hold a Research Master (MRes) in Quantitative Economics from the European Center for Advanced Research in Economics and Statistics (ECARES) of the Solvay Brussels School of Economics and Management (Université Libre de Bruxelles). I hold a Teaching Assistant position within the same Institution. I have a background in Business Economics (Bachelor's and Master's degrees) and I have been an exchange student at the University of Ghent (Ghent, Belgium).
I am currently employed as as Economic Analyst/Economist in the Directorate General for Economic and Financial Affairs (DG ECFIN) of the European Commission. I am involved in applying economic theory and tools to analyse issues and produce policy guidelines in the area of structural reforms related to structural public finance issues, with particular reference to pension systems.
Previously, I have occupied an Economic Analyst position both in the Directorate General for Economic and Financial Affairs (DG ECFIN) and in the Directorate General for International Cooperation and Development (DG DEVCO).
Prior to the European Commission, I have worked as a Research Assistant in academia and as a Junior Consultant.
