I am a PhD candidate in the Department of Economics at the University of Warwick. I will be joining the Department of Economics at the University of Oxford as a postdoc in the Fall of 2025. My main research interests are in economic development, macroeconomics, labor economics, and urban economics.
I am proudly married to Angelica Martinez Leyva
