I studied a Licenciatura in Economics at the Universitat de València, when those 5 year-long undergraduate degrees still existed in Spain. I subsequently went on to obtain an MSc and a Ph.D. in Economics at the University of Edinburgh. During my Ph.D. I visited the Economics Department of UPenn. I then spent two years in Florence as a Max Weber Fellow. The pandemic hit in the middle of my first year, so this has been quite an extraordinary experience. I am currently an FBBVA Postdoctoral fellow at Universidad Carlos III and a Part-time Assitant Professor (more like a visiting professor with teaching privileges) at the EUI Economics department.
