I completed my PhD at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona in June 2012, and I am currently an Associate Professor at Universitat Rovira i Virgili (Reus. Spain).
My research interests span the fields of Public Economics, Political Economy and Microeconomics, with a specific focus on contest theory, secessionism and fiscal federalism.
