I am a Max Weber Fellow and Part-Time Assistant Professor in Qualitative Methods at the European University Institute. I joined the EUI in September 2025 after completing my PhD in Political Science at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. I have also held visiting research positions at the University of Milan and the University of Edinburgh. My doctoral research examined the politics and institutional development of minimum income protection in Europe, with a particular focus on how old and new political clevages interact to shape coalition-building and policy reform.

Situated at the intersection of comparative political economy, comparative politics, and welfare state research, my research examines the politics of service-based growth: how it reshapes workers’ labour market opportunities and how unequal access to high-skilled jobs among graduates affects political participation and welfare preferences. A second strand turns to the political foundations of this economic model, examining how political actors respond to labour and skill shortages and how these responses vary with the sectoral structure of different political economies. I study these questions using quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-methods approaches.
