I am a Mexican-Spanish applied econometrician focusing on advancing two central research agendas in Banking and Development Economics through the lens of Industrial Organization. The first agenda studies how policies and regulations interact with market structure, competition, and technology adoption in the banking sector, and how these dynamics shape financial inclusion, consumption, and labor market outcomes. The second investigates how cross-border financial linkages, particularly migration networks and remittance flows, transmit economic shocks to households and financial systems in migrant-origin regions of developing countries.
I hold a Bachelor's degree in Economics from CIDE (Mexico) and a Master's degree in Econometrics and Empirical Economics from Toulouse School of Economics (France). My career has involved research roles at the Directorate Research of the Central Bank of Mexico, where I worked on financial inclusion and macro-finance topics, and at the PRISMA Network from the Directorate General Research of the European Central Bank, where I studied price setting determinants. Currently, I am pursuing the Finance track of the Ph.D. in Economics and Finance at Bocconi University.
