About

Measurement, evaluation and data for education and social development.

I’m a psychologist (UNMSM) and a measurement, evaluation and data specialist with over 5 years of experience in social and education programs. I’ve designed regional data collection and monitoring systems, led quasi-experimental evaluations across Latin America, and written results reports for multilateral donors. I currently work at Peru’s Ministry of Education on nationwide evaluations of teachers and school directors.

My interests are impact evaluation, psychometrics, behavioral science and data visualization.
