Hello!
My research lies within the field of industrial organization. My work focuses on durable goods and dynamic pricing, auctions and market design, demand estimation, consumer behaviour, and their implications on industry structure, competition and welfare.
I received my Msc in Economics at Bocconi University and my Ph.D. in Economics from Boston University. I am currently Lecturer in Economics and Director of the Summer School at London School of Economics, Research Fellow at the Center for Economic Policy Research and Associate Editor at International Journal of Industrial Organization.
Research fields: industrial organization, applied microeconomic theory and applied econometrics
