I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Department of Economics at Aalto University in Helsinki, Finland. Previously, I completed my PhD at FAIR in NHH Norwegian School of Economics. My research lies within the economics of education and behavioral economics. In my work, I study how social environment shapes identity and educational choices, as well as the emergence of gender gaps in education and labor market outcomes.
