Welcome!

I am a PhD student at the University of Turin and a Phd fellow at Collegio Carlo Alberto, working under the supervision of Elena Esposito and Giovanni Mastrobuoni.

I am an applied micro-economist specializing in economic history, media, and development economics with a particular focus on gender.

My research examines how societal and cultural norms around women evolve, particularly in response to historical and contemporary events, including conflicts as potential catalysts for change. I analyze narratives using archival media sources such as newspapers, magazines, and movies.

I hold a M.Sc. in Economics from the University of Bologna.
