Diana De Vivo

I'm a Research Assistant for Professor Monica Langella at CSEF, University of Naples Federico II, working on inequalities and labor markets. I collect, clean, and analyze large micro-datasets and official statistics to produce structured datasets and quantitative insights.

I completed an MSc in Economics and Finance at the University of Naples Federico II with a final grade of 110/110 cum laude and academic honours. My thesis examined the effects of EU membership on growth and inequality.

My research training also includes the CREI Macroeconomics Summer School at the Barcelona School of Economics and an Erasmus program in Economics at the University of Essex. As a CSEF Junior Fellow, I was mentored by Professors Tullio Jappelli and Monica Langella.

I've been recognized for academic performance throughout my studies, including the Lilli Basile Prize, the Best DiSES Students Prize, and the Intesa Sanpaolo Scholarship. I work with STATA, R, Python, SPSS, MATLAB, and LaTeX to support quantitative economic research.
