Hola!
I'm a PhD student in Economics at Brandeis University in Boston. I come originally from the Colombian Andes!
Research Interests
- Macroeconomic dynamics
- Business Cycles analysis
- Behavioral models of Asset Pricing Bubbles
Expertise
I'm still developing expertise on:
- Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium modeling
- Agent-Based Finance modeling
- Statistical research methods
Multidisciplinary Interests
I strongly believe in the importance to build new knowledge from the cross-fertilization between the social sciences and the hard sciences. One relevant avenue of research that offers great potential is the application of complex systems for social science research, in particular:
- Network structure modeling
- Evolution and learning algorithms
- Large scale macroeconomic modeling of many-type agents
Possible projects to undertake at CSSS
I would like to develop a macroeconomic model with heterogenous agents and a complex collection of evolving traded assets.
The objective is to model the behavior of endogenous asset price bubbles due to borrowing constraints.
Other interests
Hiking, biking, swimming, table tennis, International films, Tibetan Buddhism.
