I am a Postdoctoral Researcher in International Economics at the University of Basel. My research interests lie at the intersection of macroeconomics, international economics, sovereign debt, and recursive contracts. I completed my PhD at the European University Institute in 2024, where I was supervised by Ramon Marimon and Alexander Monge-Naranjo.

Previously, I held visiting and research positions at the University of Pennsylvania, the European Stability Mechanism, and the Swiss National Bank. My work has been published in the Journal of International Economics and the Review of Economic Dynamics, and includes ongoing projects on sovereign debt, limited commitment, and moral hazard.

My current teaching includes courses on Advanced International Macroeconomics and International Money and Finance at the University of Basel.
