Summary

As an accomplished Research Associate at King's College London, I have honed my expertise in leading diverse, multinational teams and spearheading complex economic research projects. My academic journey, culminating in a PhD in Economics from the University of Geneva, has been marked by a deep engagement with econometrics, particularly in quasi-experimental methods and causal analysis. My experience ranges from designing and executing multi-country RCTs to impactful policy consultation, supported by advanced proficiency in statistical software like R and STATA. This blend of leadership, analytical rigor, and practical application in economics positions me uniquely for roles requiring in-depth economic analysis, causal inference strategies and strategic project management.
