Welcome to my personal website. I am an economist working on competition and consumer matters at CRA in London. Below you find some of my academic research work. My research background relates to Empirical Industrial Organization, Behavioral Economics, Competition Policy, and Quantitative Marketing. I previously worked as an Assistant Professor at Universitat Pompeu Fabra and Affiliated Professor at the Barcelona School of Economics, where I still occasionally teach.
