About Me

Welcome! I am a Ph.D. Candidate in Economics at Florida International University.

I am on the 2024-2025 job market.

My research focuses on Development Economics with a particular interest in Policy Evaluation, Education, Inequality, and Time Use Studies. I also have solid experience in Microeconomics and Applied Econometrics.

My job market paper examines the effect of losing a cash transfer on educational and labor outcomes, as well as its impact on the division of labor in Ecuador.

I have experience as a Graduate Teaching Assistant on undergraduate and graduate courses. As an instructor, I have taught Principles of Microeconomics and Macroeconomics.
