Biography

My research interests lie within game theory and my main focus to date has been on models of interaction in networks and their applications. Although I am an economist by training, my research has benefited significantly from the insights of other social sciences, especially sociology and psychology, and I wish to preserve and enhance this interdisciplinary perspective.


I will receive a Ph.D. in Economics from Stanford University in June 2011; my thesis supervisors are Matthew Jackson, Muriel Niederle and Giacomo De Giorgi. I hold a B.Sc. (Mathematics and Economics) from the LSE and an M.Sc. in Mathematics and the Foundations of Computer Science from Oxford University.

I was born and have lived most of my life in Bogotá, Colombia and, geographically speaking, I identify most with the northern Andes high plateaus.
