Summary

Growing up across different parts of the world such as Peru, different US states, Colombia, Barcelona, and London, I have witnessed and experienced the vast socioeconomic inequalities both between and within countries. This life-long experience and exposure led me to study PPE (Philosophy, Politics and Economics) at KCL in an attempt to understand the differences that have always surrounded me, as well as begin to pursue a career in Political Economy & Socioeconomic Development. Although most of my experience is within academic and policy-making research, I am constantly looking to branch out and find new ways of understanding and finding solutions to the overarching problems developing countries like mine (Peru) face. This drives my interest to enter different areas, from private banking to public sector institutions, from on-the-ground project implementation to multilateral entities with a development focus.
