Welcome to my website. I am an Assistant Professor of  Strategy at the Department of Management and Technology, Bocconi University. I’m interested in studying how corporations navigate conflicting stakeholder demands and examining both the decision processes and the ensuing effects on market structure, innovation, environmental practices, and societal well-being. My current research is focused on corporate transparency, environmental regulation, the interplay between business and politics, and the mechanisms to combat corruption.

I hold a Ph.D. in Business Administration, with a concentration in Strategy & Entrepreneurship, from the Olin Business School at Washington University in St. Louis. I also obtained an MSc in Metals and Energy Finance from the Royal School of Mines, Imperial College London, as a Chevening Scholar.

Prior to academia, I served as Deputy Director of Strategy and Business Development at Sinopec Group, where my roles included conducting cross-border M&As, strategic planning, and managing relationships with key stakeholders.
