I am currently a Researcher JAE-DOC at the Institut d'Anàlisi Econòmica (IAE-CSIC). Prior to joining the IAE I was  Assistant Professor at the University of Alicante. On June 2006, I received my Ph.D. from the Department of Economics at the European University Institute, and I got my B.A. in Economics from University Pompeu Fabra.

I am also affiliated professor at the Barcelona GSE, INSIDE-MOVE researcher, IZA research fellow, CReAM external affiliate and lecturer at the UAB.

My main research interests are Labor Economics and Applied Microeconometrics. My current work focuses on the economic implications of migration for receiving countries. I also participate in a project to detect discrimination against immigrants in the rental market. Furthermore I have some work on cultural transmission and its implications for the persistence of inequality across generations.
