bio
I was born and grew up in Mexico City. I have always been curious about how people understand the world and how ideas, institutions, and power shape the societies we live in. I pursued a bachelor's degree in Economics at ITAM, concentrating on economic theory and political economy. I also studied Philosophy at UNAM. I have worked on multiple research projects in political economy, development, and public policy at institutions such as ITAM, Johns Hopkins, Harvard, the Bank of Mexico, and the World Bank.
My research interests focus on how economic factors, institutions, and political power interact to shape economic development, inequality, and democracy. I am also interested in how media shape social norms, political participation, and accountability for violence.
I'm a second-year PhD student in Politics at New York University (NYU).
