I am a Senior Researcher at the INVEST Research Flagship Center of the University of Turku, Finland. I also serve as the Research Director of the INVEST-Hub about experimental research and interventions, as an Adjunct Researcher at the Foundational Research on Data, Chile, and as an Associate Editor of the Social Science journal (Springer).

Before joining University of Turku, I was an Assistant Professor (tenure-track) at Universidad de O'Higgins (Chile). Previously, I had served one year as a post-doctoral fellow at Tulane University (New Orleans, LA, U.S.). I received my PhD in Political Science from Rutgers University (New Brunswick, NJ, U.S.) in the spring of 2017.
