Congrats!! And great news for U Toronto too :)

Hi Francesco, thanks a lot for your interest and I understand very well reducing international travels! Unfortunately we don’t know yet if we’ll have the possibility to have it streamed online so we can’t commit at this stage!

Thanks a lot Charley!

Julia, thanks so much :) it means a lot from you.

10/ This is my job market paper and it owes immensely to my committee @guygrossman.bsky.social, Dorothy Kronick, and @jlynch13.bsky.social, and to my Postdoc PI @saadgulzar.bsky.social. I'm very happy to see it out and wish I could celebrate it with you!

9/ If you’re interested in the intersection of migration, labor exploitation, and organized crime, check out the full paper here: 🔖 www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/...

8/ 🚨 Policy takeaway: Combating organized crime isn’t just about state strength. Reducing reliance on criminal intermediaries requires tackling the conditions that make their services valuable—like migrant labor precarity.

7/ 🌏 This has global implications. Similar dynamics could explain how the Italo-American mafia exploited migrant labor in early 20th-century NYC, or how Nigerian gangs control undocumented migrants in Italy today.
