Thank you for visiting my website!
I am an Associate Professor at the Department of Economics, and the Centre for Decision Research at the Leeds University Business School and an affiliate Associate Professor (Grado 4) at the Department of Economics, Universidad de la República. I am also an international research associate in the Sustainable Energy Transitions Initiative / Environment for Development Initiative (Duke University, University of Gothenburg) and the co-director of the Healthy Buildings Network..
I am a behavioural economist and I investigate the relationship between risk and behaviour using a range of tools, including economic experiments (and valuation experiments), around topics related to climate change, environmental hazards and the impacts of these on health. Part of my work is interdisciplinary, merging economics with public health and environmental health sciences.
I am also part of the health economics research group at Universidad de la República, Uruguay, where I work on tobacco cessation policies and understanding the experience rare diseases within families (in partnership with Institut Pasteur), among other policy-relevant health topics.
My current affiliations:
I serve as the Uruguay country delegate for the Society for the Advancement of Behavioral Economics (SABE). I am part of the executive committee for the Network of UK behavioural and experimental economists (BEE UK). Since 2025, I am the honorary treasurer of IAREP.
