After eight intensive years in diverse roles at the Mexican national government, where I delivered important change processes, I moved to the UK and Ireland to internationalise my career and to pursue higher degrees. This allowed me to deepen my knowledge in economic competitiveness, globalisation processes; to specialise my quantitative and analytical skills; and to further develop my research and pedagogical skills. Currently, I am Lecturer at the Department of Economics, Kemmy Business School and I am writing a series of international refereed publications in Industrial Economics and Evaluation of Innovation Policies.
