Hi there! 
I'm currently pursuing my Master's in Psychology of Economic Life at LSE, after completing my Bachelor's in Economics at the University of St. Gallen (Switzerland) this summer. I am genuinely passionate about advancing the values and ideas of Doughnut Economics, as I am convinced that we need a shift in the mainstream narrative of economic success and individual flourishing for the sake of planetary and individual well-being. Therefore, I am studying this innovative intersection of economics and psychology in my Master's degree to (1) better understand the roots of our unsustainable mainstream economic personality, and (2) discover how the transition to a new mindset can be promoted and established.

As for my contribution within this ambitious movement - I am still in a discovery phase. In the past, I have worked both within the private sector (marketing agency), as well as in research (assistant to a Professor in micro- and normative economics). I am highly motivated to find out where I can make the most significant impact. I welcome any advice or contacts.
