I am an economic historian interested in how market frictions shape valuation and market efficiency. My research uses the art market as a natural setting to study the role of institutions in determining price and value, where quality is difficult to assess. 

I completed my PhD in Economic History at the London School of Economics (LSE) under the supervision of Olivier Accominotti (LSE) and Kim Oosterlinck (ULB).

Excited to be joining Judge Business School next academic year 2026/2027 with the EHS-IHR Postan Fellowship.

Research Interests: Applied Micro, Financial and Economic History, Asset Pricing, Information Economics
