info​​
 

I hold an MSc. in Economics from the Universidad Nacional de Colombia and a BA. in Economics from Universidad de Antioquia, Colombia's most important Universities. I am a proactive, critical thinking Economist, with a capacity for teamwork and a strong command of written and oral communication, as reflected by academic papers I have published or presented at several academic events, some of them co-authored.

​

A key feature of my work is my permanent concern to substantiate the undertaken theoretical approaches and assumptions on verifiable facts. As a consequence, I have developed important skills in the realm of quantitative analysis, as well as a continual interest in updating my theoretical and practical knowledge, as a means to strengthen my hability to tackle socio-economic problems.
