About

I am from the beautiful city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Rio has undoubtedly been a major influence on my enthusiasm for economics.

I am also a huge fan of history, cooking, and physics. When I am not doing research, I am probably in my kitchen making an experimental dish. My favorite cuisines are Brazilian-Portuguese, Lebanese, and Italian.
