I'm offering
I am a highly motivated and curious economist, political scientist and current MSc candidate in Local Economic Development at the LSE. I have worked for over four years in diverse academic and international development projects as well as public policies in developing contexts. These funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), International Organization for Migration (IOM), Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO), United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the public sector.
I have experience in the innovative design, delivery and evaluation of regional projects and national public policy on socioeconomic development. My professional focus analyses the private sector investment decision making and its effects on inclusive growth and sustainable development in socially volatile contexts, this in partnership with the public sector and international development agencies. For my work, I apply both strong quantitative and qualitative analytical tools.
Currently, I am looking for new opportunities in projects related to business investment and social impact, environmental sustainability and public policy.
