I am an Assistant Professor at the Institute for Markets and Strategy at Wirtschaftsuniversität Wien (Vienna University of Economics and Business).

Climate change and inequality are among the top global issues of our age. Using laboratory and field experiments, my research provides empirical evidence informing economic theory and policy towards promoting resilient and inclusive societies.

I explore how evolving external environments and internal norms shape behavior including public goods provision, entry into competition, cheating and bargaining. With a better understanding of the micro-foundations, I further investigate how policies and mechanisms can be designed to promote efficiency, as in coordinating rural public goods provision, and counter inequality, connecting to persistent gender gaps.
