Welcome to my website! I am an associate professor of economics (with tenure) at the University of Utah,  where I have been a faculty member since 2016. I hold a Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Kent, an M.S. in Economics and Econometrics from the University of Kent, and a B.S. in Economics from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). Here is a link to my CV.

My research and teaching interests center on macroeconomics and econometrics. In the area of macroeconomics, I work on monetary economics, the dynamics of hysteresis, and their interplay with monetary, fiscal, and financial stabilization policies. In the area of econometrics, my work focuses on Bayesian statistical methods in time series analysis and empirical macroeconomics, and nonlinear, non-Gaussian models in macroeconomic analysis and forecasting.

My research has been published in peer-reviewed journals including Economics Letters, the Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control, Macroeconomic Dynamics, the Review of Income and Wealth, and Studies in Nonlinear Dynamics and Econometrics, among others.
