Research Interests
My main research interest lies in the intersection between Political Behaviour, Comparative Politics, and quantitative methods.
My current research agenda includes:
- Electoral politics, with an emphasis on British and Chilean politics
- Elite politics: candidates and legislators from a comparative approach
- Public opinion
- Latent variable estimation
- (Not so) big data, data management, visualisation, and automated collection
I am open to any questions about potential PhD supervision, just drop me an email.
