Hi! I'm a PhD candidate in Economics at the Paris School of Economics working under the supervision of Hillel Rapoport and Thomas Piketty and a Research Associate at Opportunity Insights - Harvard. I'm also a Fellow at the World Inequality Lab and an Affiliated Researcher at Sciences Po Economics Department
I'm the founder and director of the Spanish Opportunity Lab (Laboratorio de Oportunidades), a new research lab aimed at advancing our understanding of inequality and economic mobility in Spain through the use of big administrative data
My research focuses on labor and public economics, with a particular interest in intergenerational mobility and inequality. Leveraging newly constructed administrative data, I explore how economic policies, neighborhood characteristics, and inter-group interactions influence the economic opportunities, choices and outcomes of individuals across generations.
I also translate my research into policy by collaborating with public administrations and key stakeholders in Spain and Europe, focusing on topics around inequality, social mobility, and social policy as the Deputy Director and co-founder of Future Policy Lab
