Welcome to my webpage!

I am a Senior Quantitative Analyst at Ivàlua and a Research Fellow at the Barcelona Institute of Economics (IEB), where I co-direct the Political Economy Program, and at the Institutions and Political Economy Research Center (IPERC).  I am also an Associate Professor (on leave) at the University of Barcelona and an IZA Research Affiliate.  

My research interests are in public economics, political economy and comparative politics, and economics of education and social mobility. I am broadly interested in causal inference and quantitative analysis in the social sciences.  

I earned my PhD in Economics at the European University Institute in 2016, and  afterwards, I held postdoctoral fellowships at CORE (UCLouvain), IPEG, and as a Visiting Research Scholar at Princeton University's Bobst Center and Politics Department.

 On this page you can find my research and CV.
