Assistant Professor in the Department of Economics

Cornell University

Welcome!

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Economics at Cornell University. I received my Ph.D. in Economics from Northwestern University. I am originally from Puno, Peru.

My research interests lie broadly in econometric theory, statistical machine learning, and their applications in economics. Recently, I have focused on (statistical) algorithmic fairness, debiased machine learning (DML), inference using local projections, and identification and inference for treatment effects in stratified experiments. If you’re interested in discussing these topics, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
