Welcome to my website!
I am an Economist by training and I work at UBS Center of Excellence as Lead Analyst, Associate Director. Previously, I worked at UBS New York as Equity Research Scientific Associate within Investment Banking, Global Research. I also worked as Economist and Policy Advisor at the OECD in Paris, France, where I was involved in research projects on market concentration and business dynamism, as Finance Postdoctoral Researcher at the Institute for Financial Management at the University of Bern, Switzerland, and as Visiting Researcher at Tepper School of Business at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, USA, where I performed quantitative research in corporate finance, macroeconomics, monetary policy, and machine learning, with a focus on financially distressed companies. I was also Research Economist at the Einaudi Research Center where I led projects in economics and finance and carried out data analyses for the public and private sector. Views expressed are my own.
