Research Interests & Projects
My research interests are varied, spanning labour economics, applied econometrics, economics of immigration, economics of education, personnel economics, and more recently the role of behavioural and ideological biases in economics. My wide research interests and my movement across different research topics are mainly driven by my continuous curiosity to examine questions that I find interesting and important to answer. However, one identifiable theme in my work is studying mechanisms and processes that hinder plurality and produce inequality, injustice, exclusion, and marginalization.
