I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Harris School of Public Policy, University of Chicago.

I received my Ph.D. from Columbia University’s program in Sustainable Development, which cultivates an interdisciplinary approach — heavily grounded in economics — to studying socio-ecological systems.

I’m deeply interested in the relationship between human societies and domesticated animals, and its key role in sustainability. I also strongly believe that cross-disciplinary research is crucial for addressing the challenges of sustainable development. My work centers on:

  • Animal farming systems, especially the economic trade-offs linked to industrialization;
  • Integrating statistical methods across disciplines.
