I am currently a Postdoctoral Research Fellow for the ETHNICGOODS project at the Institut Barcelona d’Estudis Internacionals (IBEI). During the year 2023-2024, I am visiting the Paris School of Economics.

I hold a Ph.D. in economics (2021) from the Paris School of Economics. In 2020-2021, I worked as a Project Research Fellow for the Spatial Inequalities in African Political Economy (London School of Economics and Political Science).

My research stands at the intersection of development economics, family economics, and economic history. I focus on understanding the formation of ethnic and national identities in sub-Saharan Africa.
