I am a Senior Economist in the Financial Studies Unit at the Central Bank of Chile. I hold a PhD in Economics from Tilburg University.

My research covers financial intermediation and labor markets. On the financial side, I ask how lending relationships transmit liquidity and information across banks, and how central bank collateral policy affects the structure of financial markets. On the labor side, I ask how firms use flexible contracts to adjust over the business cycle, and how this adjustment changes aggregate fluctuations. My empirical work uses administrative microdata from Chile and the Netherlands.
