Welcome

I am an Economic Historian with interest in Economic Theory and Industrial Organization.

I received a PhD in Economics at Northwestern University in 2014. My thesis was centered on traditional irrigation communities in Murcia, Spain. I am interested in water allocation and agricultural communities. My most recent work studies historical inequality and social mobility, in both sides of the Atlantic.

Our paper with Javier Donna, just got accepted at The Review of Economic Studies

“The Illiquidity of Water Markets: Efficient Institutions for Water Allocation in Southeastern Spain”

 

We are organizing a new conference for December 8th-9th.
