Designing Evidence-Based FinTech
for Real-World Impact.

My research focuses on developing evidence-based AI and FinTech solutions that help households strengthen their financial well-being, while supporting the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

 

Positioned at the crossroads of finance, information technology, and cognitive science, my work examines the behavioral and design drivers that shape how people adopt and benefit from digital financial services.

 

My current and upcoming projects translate these insights into practical, human-centered innovations, drawing on behavioral finance, Amartya Sen’s capability approach, and financial literacy research. I also collaborate with academic and industry colleagues from around the world, and I welcome partnerships with entrepreneurs and researchers who want to turn rigorous science into real-world impact.
