I am a Postdoctoral Prize Research Fellow in Sociology at Nuffield College. Broadly speaking, my research spans social stratification, policy analysis, and methods. I am interested in understanding how inequalities are reproduced across social groups and the factors that can mitigate long-term social inequalities.  My published work has investigated topics such as gender inequality in lifetime earnings, the impact of conditional cash transfers on socioeconomic indicators, policy and housing affordability, and methodological issues in inequality measurement. 

One of my main focuses during my time at Oxford will be to further my research agenda on long-term economic inequalities by investigating how and why inequalities unfold over the life course in different ways across societal groups and national contexts. Specifically, I will investigate three main research questions, broadly defined. First, I will explore how and why lifetime economic inequalities vary across individuals and families, considering the intersection of gender, race-ethnicity, and social class. Second, I will analyse how and why lifetime socioeconomic inequality and deprivation differ cross-nationally. Third, I will tie the intra- and inter-generational mobility literatures to understand the cross-generational spillovers of long-term inequalities in international perspective. 

Before joining Oxford, I completed my PhD in Sociology at the Graduate Center at the City University of New York, received my Master’s and BSc in Sociology from the University of Brasilia, Brazil. Additionally, I worked as a consultant The Organization of Ibero-American States for Education, Science and culture (OEI) performing analyses necessary for the construction of the Brazilian National Inclusion-Registry of people with disabilities.
