He is also an associated researcher at the Stone Center on Socio-Economic Inequality at CUNY, UCL Economics Department, and the UCL Centre for Capitalism Studies. His research focuses on modern capitalism through distributional analysis, including the development of compositional inequality (CI) metrics and fractal mathematics modeling of economic heterogeneity. He holds a PhD from the Paris School of Economics and has held roles at institutions like the World Bank and the London School of Economics.

Research interests include applied economics, public economics, political economy, and mathematical economics, addressing topics like income inequality, capital vs. labor income dynamics, and systemic economic heterogeneity. His work intersects with Sustainable Development Goals 1 (No Poverty), 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), and 10 (Reduced Inequalities).

His recent publications analyze compositional inequality measurement, global income distributions, fractal economic modeling, and Italian capitalism. He has contributed to policy-oriented studies on redistribution mechanisms and economic systems comparisons. While no specific awards are listed, his interdisciplinary approach bridges theoretical economics with practical policy analysis. He advises on research at multiple UCL centers and has collaborated internationally through visiting fellowships and consultancy.

Languages include English (native), French, Italian, Spanish (Latin American), and Arabic (reading/writing). His work extends beyond academia with piano composition, reflecting interdisciplinary creativity.
