About me
I received my Laurea in Letters from the University of Milano in 1997 and I got my Ph.D. in Economic History at the Department of Economics, University of Pisa in 2003.
From 2003 to 2006 I spent three years as postdoctoral fellow, first at the Department of Economics, University of Bologna and then at the Economic History Unit, Bocconi University.
From 2005 to 2008 I taught Economic History as an adjunct professor at the University of Milano-Bicocca and, from 2006, at the University of Insubria.
At present I am lecturer in Economic History at the Department of Economics, University of Insubria.
