About me

I am a Ph.D. Candidate in Economics at the University of Chile and the University of Groningen. My research lies in applied microeconomics, with interests in education, health, and labor economics.

My work studies the effects of shocks and social programs on human capital, household behavior, and labor market outcomes. Through this research, I aim to contribute evidence for the design and evaluation of public policies that foster human, social, and economic development.
