After receiving my PhD from the School of Statistics, University of Minnesota in 2008, I held tenured positions as an Assistant Professor (Ricercatore) at the University of Modena and Associate Professor (Senior Lecturer) at the University of Melbourne. I am currently a Full Professor in the Faculty of Economics and Management at the University of Bolzano, where I teach statistical methods and applied statistics at both undergraduate and graduate levels. I am also coordinating the master degree in Data Analytics for Economics and Management.
