My deep interest in social behaviour, together with the fact that I come from a developing country, led me to enquire about the ways to overcome the barriers to improve living standards. Realising that economic reasoning helps greatly to solve this puzzle, I decided to pursue a career in Economics. Thanks to the Gates Cambridge Trust I have now the opportunity to refine and expand my expertise on development economics for policy design and to learn among colleagues from a wide cultural spectrum.
