I gained my Ph.D. in Development Economics and Local Systems (DELoS) at the Uiversity of Florence in April 2025. I am actually holding a scholarship at the University of Padua on district heating. In 2025, I had a research grant at the University of Florence to study the Tuscany Health Ecosystem (here you can find the research output.) I am interested in the causes and consequences of industrial agglomeration. In my dissertation, I focused on the Italian dynamics of manufacturing growth led by external economies. I am also interested in how macroeconomic trends affect the geography of production.
I was a visiting research assistant of prof. Giulio Buciuni at Trinity College Dublin in 2024. I had a research fellowship at the University of Florence from 2020 to 2021 on cultural economics and artificial intelligence.
