Research

I use large administrative datasets and simulations to study the interactions of Venezuelan immigrants and Peruvian schoolchildren in the context of a large and rapid immigration inflow produced by the unprecedented exodus of Venezuelan families into Peru. In my Job Market Paper, I used quasi-random classroom assignment to quantify and interpret the impact of an additional Venezuelan classmate on the academic performance of Peruvian eighth graders.

Teaching

I have worked as a Teaching Assistant since 2013. Before Duke, I taught Intermediate Macroeconomics (UG) at Universidad del Pacifico (2013-2014) and then led Industrial Organization (UG) discussion sessions at Universidad de Piura (2016-2018), where I obtained a Certificate in College Teaching. At Duke, I led discussion sessions in Microeconomics (UG) and Econometrics (G) and, for the latter, I provided guidance and feedback on student research projects.
