That's a few things about myself, thanks for reading along.

I will try to keep this space more updated in the future, you can reach me here or swing by my website: pizzigolot.to 🌐.

5/ I am also a big time Pokémon fan, a 4X video games enthusiast and a craft beer geek 🍻🎮. A few things to keep my life interesting.

4/ When I am not buried in data, I'm a music nerd at heart, with a taste for the heavy side of things. I love listening to music and attend concerts. I also promised myself for this year to spend time playing the bass guitar and experimenting with effects. 🎸🤘

3/ Lately, I’ve been mostly diving deep into the last two, working on charitable institutions and volcanoes. A quirky mix, I know—but it’s a wild, data-fueled ride. 🌋

2/ My research blends micro-econometric tools with cool data science techniques to explore the intersections of political economy, finance, religion, and economic history.

1/ Hi, I'm Alessandro — currently a postdoc at the University of Copenhagen, fairly fresh from earning my PhD in Economics at the Norwegian School of Economics (NHH). 📚

I’ve been hanging around on Bluesky these past few weeks, and I have to say, the content is quite engaging. So, I thought I’d take a moment to break my cycle of laziness with social media and write a few words to introduce myself. ↓
