► Lecturer in Economics at an independent London college.

► I have a Masters degree in Economics, which I complemented with a Postgraduate Certificate in Operations Management. After more than a decade researching on productivity and efficiency I am in the process of writing my PhD thesis on the economic impact of the cultural and creative industries.

► Experienced in financial & business planning, HR, IT, market research, and economics and business research projects, mainly in the cultural and service sectors.

► Time ago I was exposed to day-to-day general management duties as an expat in UK and Brazil overseas branches of a Spanish chemicals Group, tier-1 supplier for the ceramics industry.

► I am highly interested in the application of Economics, Industrial Psychology, and Software Tools to business strategy and organisation. That's why I like operational research that much.

► I enjoy managing people and researching, but foremost applying research to gather insights, making proposals for improvement and 'touching' the outcomes.

► I do think that Economics is more than capable of helping us overcoming another crisis; just take the politicians out of the equation! (PS Yes, call me a technocrat).
