I am an Assistant Professor of Economics at Universidad Antonio de Nebrija in Madrid. My research examines how artificial intelligence, technological change, and industrial policy shape labour markets, productivity, and economic development.
I hold a PhD in Economic Geography from the London School of Economics (LSE). My work combines applied econometrics, large-scale administrative and online data, and computational methods to study topics including AI adoption, skills demand, industrial policy, and structural transformation. My research has been featured in media outlets such as The Economist and the Financial Times.
Before joining Nebrija, I was a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Oxford, where I investigated the economic implications of artificial intelligence and technological change. Prior to that, I was a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Research Fellow at LSE and a Research Manager at Innovations for Poverty Action (IPA). I have also collaborated with organisations including USAID, the Ford Foundation, and the Natural Resource Governance Institute (NRGI).
