About
I hold a Ph.D. in Experimental Economics and specialize in data analysis and research. I am passionate about problem-solving and deriving actionable insights from complex data systems. My expertise lies in analyzing and presenting the implications of large-scale projects on decision-making processes.
I excel in leading projects from inception to completion, managing teams with professionalism and efficiency. My approach combines deep data analysis with strategic planning and execution, underpinned by the development of accurate economic models. This skill set enables me to drive teams toward achieving strategic goals optimally.
Throughout my career, I have successfully led academic projects involving the design and execution of field experiments with hundreds of participants, ensuring meticulous planning and comprehensive data analysis. Additionally, I have advised businesses in the private sector on developing and implementing strategic plans, with a particular focus on economic analysis and consumer preference research.
