GENERAL

Biography

My doctoral research and recent experience have focused on contributing to the understanding of quality of life and social inequalities. I founded the Research Group in Applied Economics and Regulation to stimulate the interest of my students and colleagues in understanding and proposing solutions to real problems of the population through economic analysis.

In recent years, I have dedicated my efforts to the construction of action plans within the framework of public policies, trying to contribute from public management to the design of programs and projects that respond to the needs of the population and contribute to the closing of gaps.
