Biography
Broadly speaking, I am a macroeconomist specialised in theoretical and empirical issues about medium and business cycles in macroeconomics. Among others, I am interested in studying the impact of demographic transitions on key macroeconomic variables, various aspects of monetary policy and design, the relevance of financial imperfections.
I am a CESifo research network fellow based in Munich and held visiting fellowships at the European Central Bank and Banco de Espana.
