About Me
About Me
I am an Assistant Professor at the School of Industrial Engineering, UDP. I obtained my Ph.D. from Universidad de Chile in January 2021. My thesis was advised by Leonardo Basso and Pedro Jara-Moroni, with Juan Escobar and Rabah Amir serving as members of the committee. I completed my undergraduate studies at Universidad de Chile in Mathematical Civil Engineering (Applied Math) under the supervision of José Correa. Here you can find a brief CV.

Current Activities (June 2025)
My manuscript "The role of endogenous timing in public goods provision and its implications for welfare" has been published in the Journal of Public Economic Theory. This is a joint work with Leonardo Basso and Pedro Jara-Moroni. You can check it out here: https://doi.org/10.1111/jpet.70047
Last Wednesday (June 4), I had the opportunity to present at the Seminar for Master’s Students in Industrial Engineering at USACH. You can check out the news here: Link
This year (2025), I will be participating in the Comité de Innovación Curricular, a group dedicated to updating and improving the Industrial Engineering curriculum at UDP.
My second solo article of the year, "Endogenous timing in a price-setting duopoly: the role of the slopes", has been accepted for publication in Applied Economics Letters. I'm really happy! You can check the article here: https://doi.org/10.1080/13504851.2024.2439326
On August I received a UDP Excellence Award for my teaching in the Faculty of Engineering and Sciences during the past year. This recognition inspires me to keep striving for quality education, fostering critical thinking, creativity, and analytical skills in a tech-driven world. Let’s keep improving!
Two of my students are now officially engineers! 🎉 Congratulations to Álvaro Úbeda and Javiera Frías for their exceptional work this semester. Álvaro developed an innovative model for decentralized shooting strategies in football, while Javiera applied a diverse set of tools—including cooperative game theory, Monte Carlo simulations, and sociometric analysis—to evaluate the influence of each student in a class at UDP. Proud of their achievements and excited to see what they’ll accomplish next!
In March 2024, my first solo article, “Criminals Can Be Leaders: An Endogenous Timing Approach to Security Games,” was accepted for publication in International Game Theory Review. I’m very happy about this achievement. You can check it out here: https://doi.org/10.1142/S0219198924500063
