I am a lecturer in Economics at Insper. My research lies at the intersection of Development Economics and Economic History, with a particular focus on institutional and political change in Brazil during the early twentieth century and its implications for long-term development.

Before joining Insper, I completed my Ph.D. in Economics at São Paulo School of Economics (EESP-FGV) and received my Master’s degree in Economics from the University of São Paulo (FEA-USP). You can check my full CV here.
