Welcome to my website​

​

​

I am a researcher at the World Inequality Lab. I have a Master's degree in Applied Economics specializing in Public Policy and Development from the Paris School of Economics, as well as a Master's degree in Applied Economics from ITAM in Mexico.

​

​​My research focuses on development economics. Currently, I am focused on understanding how human capital formation impacts the life outcomes of individuals in developing contexts.​​ 

​

I am also interested in studying inequality and currently serve as the Coordinator of the 2026 World Inequality Report.

​

In 2024, I was honored to receive the prestigious Joaquín Xirau Icaza Economics Award from Colegio de México for my research on the medium-term impact of early education on academic performance (see awarded working paper). Additionally, I received the ITAM Alumni Research Award (honorable mention).

​

My professional experience includes working as an Economist at Mexico's Central Bank and serving as Director of Domestic Debt Issuance at the Mexican Ministry of Finance.
