Department of International Finance and Investments
I am a research and teaching assistant at the Faculty of Economics and Sociology of the University of Lodz in the discipline of economics and finance. In my academic work, I combine economic and legal perspectives, focusing on European capital markets, financial market regulation, and the processes of foreign expansion of enterprises.
I gained my research experience during a six-month research fellowship at the Business School of Loughborough University, funded under the STER NAWA programme, as well as through research visits at renowned academic institutions such as University College Cork and Athens University of Economics and Business. I have presented the results of my research at numerous national and international academic conferences, including those held in Oxford, Cambridge, Dresden, Prague, and Daugavpils.
I teach courses in finance and international business in both Polish and English. My legal education and professional experience as a legal counsel enable me to conduct in-depth analyses of the institutional and regulatory frameworks governing financial markets and international business activities.
I am actively engaged in international academic cooperation and am interested in developing internationally oriented research projects and obtaining external research funding.
