About
I am a PhD student of economics at the Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro and I am currently based at the Institute of Latin American Studies at Columbia University. I have worked for 10 years at the Brazilian Development Bank (BNDES) and during this period I also worked 3 years as an economic advisor to the Minister Chief-of-Staff of the Brazilian Presidency. I hold a BSc degree in Economics from the Universidade de São Paulo and a MSc degree in Economics from the Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro. My research consists of an approach to the economics of the public sector based on the reappraisal of the Classical Political Economy and the Principle of Effective Demand.
