About

I am a research fellow at the Collegio Carlo Alberto, where I study welfare delegation, examining how discretion, information, and incentives interact in the distribution of benefits and services.

My research has been supported by a Postdoc.Mobility fellowship, a Mobi.Doc grant, and by the Horowitz Foundation.
