I am a Max Weber Fellow at the Department of Political and Social Science at the European University Institute in Florence. In my post-doc project, I am exploring where boys have worse education outcomes than girls. My broader interests comprise relationships between gender, politics, and policies.
My research has been published in Population and Development Review, Journal of European Social Policy and Journal of Elections, Public Opinion and Parties. I have reviewed for British Journal of Sociology and European Journal of Politics and Gender.
I got the PhD in Public Policy and Administration from the Bocconi University. I hold bachelor’s degrees in International Economics and Iberian Studies from the University of Warsaw and master’s degrees in East European Studies from the Free University Berlin and European Interdisciplinary Studies from the College of Europe. I spent exchange semesters at the University of Chile, Xaverian Pontifical University of Bogotá, University of Barcelona, Higher School of Economics in Moscow and University of Padua. During my PhD, I visited Brown University in Providence and European University Institute in Florence.
Besides the traineeship in DG Trade of the European Commission, I was a trainee at the Polish Embassies to the Holy See, in Chile, Colombia and Mexico, as well as at the research institutes of the University of Warsaw: Digital Economy Lab (DELab) and Group for Research in Applied Economics (GRAPE). I also worked for eclareon GmbH in the field of renewable energy sources.
In 2012, with the Polish national team, I won Team World Championship U21 in bridge. In 2013, I founded the student website promoting Latin America in Polish, iberoameryka.com. Between 2015 and 2019, I organized the youth camp Forum Szkół Polskich. Poznań – Europa, where I also lead workshops on the common good, regional and national identities and European integration. Since 2016, I am a member of the scientific society Collegium Invisibile. In 2022, I co-founded the Polish Association for Boys and Men.
