Biography

I am a PhD student at the Department of Economics and Related Studies supervised by Professor Gulcin Ozkan.

My work is focused on macroprudential and monetary policies in developed and emerging market economies using Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) models. Currently, I am conducting some research on migration and inequality.

I hold MSc and Bachelor degrees in Economics from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM).

Before my PhD studies, I worked as an Assistant Professor at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). I was external research for the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP) and the National Institute of Ecology and Climate Change (INECC) from Mexico.
