About

MSCA Industrial Doctoral Fellow at EU DIGITAL; former EMJMD Scholar at Economics for the Global Transition (EPOG+)

About my research

I study intersection of technology, finance, and development issues. For my graduate thesis, I examined the impact of fintech and blockchain on community currencies in Kenya with Grassroots Economics. In September 2024, I finished my master's with the Erasmus Mundus Joint Master's Degree EPOG+ offered by Roma Tre, Sorbonne, Paris Cite, and UTC Compiegne. I am now set to start my PhD as part of the MSCA DIGITAL Project on AI and sustainability finance with University of Naples Federico II (Italy), Swedbank (Sweden) and Fraunhofer Institute (Germany).
