Since March 2026, I have been a tenure-track Assistant Professor (Profesora Ayudante Doctora) in the Department of Economic Analysis and Quantitative Economics at Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM). Prior to this, I was a Visiting Assistant Professor of Economics at the Lisbon School of Economics and Management (ISEG), where I am also an affiliated researcher at both UECE and REM. I completed a Ph.D. in Economics at CEMFI in 2023, where I was also a postdoctoral researcher until July 2024. I originally hail from l’Horta Nord (València).
