Short bio
I was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, but grew up mostly in South Africa and Trinidad & Tobago. At 18, I returned to Argentina and enrolled at Di Tella, where I first learned economics. After completing my undergraduate degree, I spent a few years working in the tech industry before deciding to pursue a research career. I was very lucky to be able to come to the United States, and in particular to be accepted for graduate school at NYU, where I completed my PhD in 2021.
