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

Using laboratory and field experiments, my research informs economic analysis and policy design towards promoting sustainable and inclusive development.

I study the psychological and social factors of individual behavior in common economic interactions, including bargaining, public goods provision, and entry into competition. With a better understanding of the micro-foundations of decision making, I explore how policies and mechanisms can be designed to tackle global challenges, such as climate change and gender inequality. Additionally, I examine effective governance that translates system-level goals into individual conduct, focusing on leadership behavior under different power assignment institutions.
