Biography

I am Assistant Professor at the University of Rome “Tor Vergata”, Faculty of Economics. I previously taught as adjunct professor of International Macro at LUMSA and was researcher at the CEIS. Following my laurea in Economics at LUISS, I gained a MSc in Development Economics and a PhD in Economics from the University of Rome “Tor Vergata”. My research interests focus on health (pharmaceutial market), economic development (growth, transition) and more recently on the analysis of the Italian economy.
