I'm a behavioral scientist who studies how people actually behave when they face incentives, norms, and strategic interactions. Over the years, I've worked with lab (yes, also programming skills) and field experiments to unpack the mechanics of human cooperation and conflict. My compass sits between Microeconomics, Game Theory, Behavioral and Experimental Economics, driven by a stubborn curiosity for how social norms emerge, shape choices, and sometimes tilt the entire game.
