I am interested in the study of radical political parties both in Europe and Latin America. My academic background combine degrees on Political Science and Sociology. Before starting my doctoral studies, I worked in international organisations, different research centres, and civil society organisations. My doctoral research aims to explain the success and failure of radical left parties in Latin America and Europe from 2000 to date.
