I am a researcher in the World Bank Development Research Group and Political Cleavages and Redistribution Coordinator at the World Inequality Lab. I maintain the World Political Cleavages and Inequality Database. I received the first prize for the best PhD in Economics in Paris in 2024.

My research studies the sources and consequences of long-run transformations in the world economy, with a focus on global poverty reduction, the role played by public policies in shaping economic growth and inequality, and the dynamics of political conflict in contemporary democracies.
