Topic of interest
My research is positioned at the intersection of economic geography, urban economics, and transportation economics.
As an applied economist, I focus on analyzing how structural transformations — such as the rise of telework and the expansion of high-speed rail and highway networks — impact the aggregated behaviors of economic agents, including their location choices, mobility patterns, collaboration dynamics, and consumption habits.
I am a data enthusiastic! I love to uncover the stories it can tell. It has led me to work with high-resolution datasets — both geographic and temporal — derived from mobile phone activity, card transactions, patent records, and transportation networks. Additionally, I work on developing novel datasets that recover the evolution of travel times by train and car in relation to the creation and expansion of high-speed rail and highway networks.
