RESUME
I am an Assistant Professor of Applied Economics at the Department of Management and Production Engineering of the Politecnico di Torino. I am also a Research Fellow at the LABORatorio Riccardo Revelli - Centre for Employment Studies.
My research interests are broad and include Applied Microeconomics, Labor Economics, Business Economics, Gender Economics, and the Economics of Innovation. I am particularly interested in studying labor issues (e.g., wages, mobility, organization of human resources) from a firm-level perspective. I hold a Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Turin, in cooperation with the Collegio Carlo Alberto. My researches have been published in several international scientific journals, including Labour Economics, Industrial & Labor Relations Review, and Research Policy.
I am currently teaching Microeconomic Theory at the Politecnico di Torino and Economics of Human Resources at the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart.
