Júlia Sbroglio Rizzotto

I am currently a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of São Paulo (USP), affiliated with NEREUS (Center for Regional and Urban Economics). I earned my Ph.D. in Economics from the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio Grande do Sul in March 2024.

My work lies at the intersection of development, crime, and gender economics, with an empirical focus on intimate partner violence in Brazil using administrative health records and spatial methods.

In 2022, I was a Visiting Scholar at San Diego State University and at the University of Illinois Urbana–Champaign. Before joining USP, I spent nearly three years as an economist at Sicredi Asset Management, contributing to inflation and interest-rate forecasts that consistently ranked among the Top 5 in Brazil’s Central Bank (Focus) rankings.
