I am the Ramon Areces Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Economics and Economic History, at Universitat de Autonama de Barcelona. I am also a Research Affiliate at CLEAN, Bocconi University, the Institute of Economics (IEB) and the Barcelona School of Economics (BSE).

My research is at the intersection of political economy and development economics. My current work broadly explores the dynamics of corruption, weak institutions, and governance in emerging democracies.
