I am a political and comparative sociologist who studies State transformations, policy instruments and professions in Latin America and Europe. I received PhD in Political Science from Sciences Po in 2024, where I had previously received an MA in Political Sociology in 2018.

In my doctoral dissertation, I compared the politics of teacher evaluation in Mexico and Chile. Based on comparative-historical materials, my thesis explains why these two contrasted countries adopted the same instruments (standards) and analyzes their effects on bureaucracies and the teaching profession. By exploring the political coalitions, bureaucratic capacities, and professional effects of standards, I demonstrate that these neo-managerial instruments generate new state forms. I interpret this process as a form of managerial State-formation.

Since January 2025, I am a postdoctoral researcher in the ANR project UNERGY, "Uses and contestation of energy policies". I focus on the politics of the energy crisis in France, the bureaucratic tensions they triggered and the knowledge regimes guiding the contemporary making of energy policy.

I am also interested in the new fiscal sociology and the evolutions of tax policies. My project is to compare the historical trajectories of income taxation in Chile, Mexico, and Spain in order to understand the politics of redistribution and their links with State-making processes since the 1950s.
