I am a quantitative sociologist of education examining the nexus of inequality, education, skills formation and labour market transitions. My work contributes to education and public policy debates on educational opportunities, youth transitions and education segregation. My research has examined educational and skills inequalities and how these inequalities are accumulated during the life course. Multiple questions emerged from this work concerning the complementary sequences of effects embedded in individual contexts of skills formation.
Currently I am Ramón y Cajal Senior Researcher at the Open University of Catalonia, a member of the Globalisation, Education and Social Policies (GEPS) research centre, a researcher in the inter-university network Grupo de Investigación en Políticas Educativas (GIPE) and, since 2021 a member of the research group in Global Studies of the Universidade Aberta (Lisbon). I have been involved in more than 30 international projects. My work has been published in a range of high-ranked international journals.
