Welcome

I am a Predoctoral Researcher in Political Science at the Universitat de Barcelona (UB), within the CATAI Project: Citizens Attitudes towards Artificial Intelligence (PI: Aina Gallego).  My research focuses on technological change and its social and political effects, the role of social investment and Active Labor Market Policies (ALMPs) in promoting digital and social inclusion, and gender gaps. I work with survey and field experiments. 

I am also a member of the TransEuroWorkS Project (Horizon 2020), Institutions and Political Economy Research Center (IPERC UB), and of the AI Research for PolSci network (AI-PSR). 

In 2025, I spent three months in Zürich as a Visiting PhD researcher at the Institute of Political Science (IPZ) of the University of Zürich (host: Silja Häusermann). This stay was an intellectually and personally enriching experience, providing valuable feedback on my research and the opportunity to engage in a stimulating and collaborative academic environment—while also enjoying life in a vibrant and inspiring city. 

By training, I am a political scientist, holding a BA and two MAs in Political Science. At the same time, I am strongly committed to interdisciplinary research and regularly draw on economic and sociological approaches in my work, convinced that many of the most interesting research questions benefit from cross-disciplinary perspectives. 

Finally, I am originally from Chile, a long and narrow country in the Global South, a background that has shaped my appreciation for creativity and subtle humor  🥳, as well as for completos  🌭 and the cold waters of the Pacific Ocean 🌊.
