Pablo is a junior in Pforzheimer House concentrating in Applied Mathematics.
He is working under the guidance of Professor Aleh Tsyvinski. The project
concerns how companies decide where to invest, and what constraints these
companies face when making their decisions. In particular, Pablo is interested
in seeing how financial constraints lead firms into bankruptcy. His previous
projects with IQSS include working for Prof. Kevin Quinn. He created a dataset
of Latin American politicians to study how political language changes through
time.

Pablo is from Buenos Aires, Argentina and graduated from Lenguas Vivas
Spangenberg High School in 2004.
