I am a Guest Assistant Professor at the Institute of Social and Political Sciences of the University of Lisbon and a Doctoral researcher at the Lisbon School of Economics and Management. During my PhD, I have been a Visiting Researcher at the Center for Social Policy (CSB) Herman Deleeck at the University of Antwerp. My dissertation was funded by the Foundation for Science and Technology of Portugal (FCT). I specialize in political economy, and my research focusses on the interactions between labour, public policy and economic development from a comparative and historical perspective. Methodologically, I have a keen interest in econometric techniques, particularly country-level panel data analyses. I have been part of the editorial board of doctoral candidates of the Socio-Economic Review (2022-23), whilst previously I worked in the research unit of the United Nations Migration Agency (IOM).
