I am a Researcher at the National Council for Scientific and Technical Research of Argentina (CONICET) and an Associate Professor of government and politics at the Universidad Torcuato Di Tella. I am the Director of the Interdisciplinary Laboratory for Computational Social Science (iLCSS – University of Maryland) in Argentina. I hold a PhD in Political Science (Universidad Torcuato Di Tella) and an MA in Social Research (University of Warwick). I was a postdoctoral research visitor at the University of Maryland (2017) and Otto-Friedrich Universität Bamberg (2018). I am also a Chevening and Fulbright fellow.
My research interests center on the relationship between electoral competition and decision-making, with a focus on the study of political institutions, legislative behavior, executive-legislative relations, cabinets, political coalitions, party system, and federalism. In my research, I use quantitative designs to answer my research questions.
