I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at UC Berkeley ARE and Center for Effective Global Action (CEGA) and a research fellow at IC Migrations.
My research focuses on the socio-economic impacts of climate change and humanity’s ability to adapt to these impacts, with particular interest in the role of individual beliefs and of public policies in shaping adaptive behavior. Part of my research also examines the determinants of environmental preferences and of public support for climate policies
