I hold a PhD in Economics and Business from the Autonomous University of Madrid, where I am a Research Assistant in the Department of Applied Economics. I am also a member of the Research Group Labor and Structural Transformations in Spain and the European Union (LAST) at Complutense University of Madrid.
My research lies at the intersection of empirical macroeconomics, labor economics, public economics, income distribution, consumption, fiscal policy, and monetary policy. I use administrative and survey micro-data, quasi-experimental methods, local projections, and meta-analytic tools to study how wage, fiscal, and monetary policy shocks affect workers, households, aggregate outcomes, and inequality.
My current work studies the microeconomic effects of macroeconomic and labor market policies. In particular, I examine how minimum wage policies affect young workers’ labor-market outcomes, education, and consumption, and how fiscal policy shapes household income distribution.
In the fall of 2023, I visited the Chair of Macroeconomics at Chemnitz University of Technology, Germany.
