I work as Assistant Professor at the Department of Industrial Engineering, University of Concepcion, Chile. Previously, I conducted my PhD in Health Economics at University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, and Post-doctoral work at the Department of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences, University of Luxembourg.

Currently, I am dedicated to study social vulnerability, parental behavior, malnutrition, and early human capital accumulation. In particular, I focus on promising tailored interventions that promote adequate health equity and inclusion among families and communities. This work involves close collaboration with ongoing programs targeting children, families and schools.
