About me
I am a postdoctoral researcher at Texas A & M University. I obtained my PhD in Economics at the University of California, Santa Barbara, where I developed research in Experimental and Behavioral Economics. My research focuses on how individuals process information, form beliefs, and make decisions under uncertainty, with a particular emphasis on misinformation and risk preferences. I combine experimental methods and theoretical modeling to explore these areas, particularly higher-order beliefs, feedback mechanisms, and how people value information.
I’m excited to continue my work in economic research, with a focus on information economics and decision theory.
I am currently working at the Human Behavior Lab at Texas A&M University, where I collaborate on the Plants, Nature, and Health Initiative. I also started new projects I am very excited about.
Where am I from?
I was born and raised in the beautiful yet chaotic city of Mexico City. There, I studied Psychology and Applied Statistics at UNAM. I became interested in experimental methods and behavior models. Then, I completed my Master’s in Economics at CIDE, where I was exposed to rigorous mathematical analysis. After graduation, I worked at IFT and ASBA, and began my PhD at UCSB in 2019, from which I graduated in 2025.
Where am I going next?
I will continue to publish ongoing projects and initiate new ones. I expect to be back in the job market by 2027.
