I’m an Assistant Professor at Universitat Pompeu Fabra, and am affiliated with the Barcelona School of Economics and the Barcelona School of Management.
My research in accounting and corporate governance explores how markets and organizations respond to various corporate regulations. I primarily focus on disclosure mandates, corporate taxation, and governance rules, with an emphasis on small private firms.
My work has appeared in leading academic journals across accounting, finance, and management, and has been cited in policy discussions by the IASB and the UK Endorsement Board (UKEB), which is responsible for endorsing IFRS in the UK.
I also hold a Ramón y Cajal Fellowship from the Spanish Ministry for Science and Innovation and co-organize the Barcelona Accounting Summer Workshops. In spring 2026, I served as a visiting professor at Saïd Business School, University of Oxford.
