I am a fifth and final year PhD candidate in Finance at the London School of Economics, and until recently a PhD intern in the Financial Research Division of the Bank of England.

Before the PhD I worked at the European Central Bank, in the Risk Analysis division, monitoring the Public Sector Purchase Programme (PSPP) and the currency allocation of the ECB portfolio. I hold an MSc in Economics and Social Sciences from Bocconi and an MA in Economics from Keio University in Tokyo.
