I am a Researcher (on leave) at the Institute for Applied Economic Research (IPEA), Brazil. I am currently serving as an Economic Advisor to Congresswoman Tabata Amaral (PSB-SP).

I am primarily interested in using causal inference techniques to answer questions on macro, international, labor and political economy.
