My name is Alessandro. I am a Ph.D. Candidate in Economics and currently work as an Impact Evaluation Specialist for the United Nations (IFAD) in Rome. My expertise spans both data analysis (statistics) and data collection, including survey design, field implementation, and enumerator training. My academic interests lie in econometrics, development economics, and health economics.
As a Freelance Research Analyst I contributed to the publication of various statistical and policy reports on International Trade for the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, ICE (Italian Trade Agency), and Confindustria.

After graduating, I began my journey as an international aid worker in Ecuador for a cooperation project, and as a Research Assistant afterwards, at the University of Rome "Tor Vergata". During my Ph.D I also served as a Teaching Assistant (Econometrics for Applied Economics) and as Lecturer (International Economics), further enriching my academic training.
I earned a Bachelor's degree in Economics, a Master's degree in International Economics (both with a Thesis in Economic History and Poverty Analysis), and a Master's in Development Economics and International Cooperation (MESCI), at the University of Rome "Tor Vergata".

Having lived in several countries during my childhood and adolescence, I developed a deep appreciation for diverse cultures and environments—something that has greatly influenced both my personal and professional journey.
I love photography and, as an amateur, I am passionate about capturing moments and places around the world, aiming to narrate at my best, the complexity of the human condition.
