In today’s fiscally constrained world, spending better is more critical than spending more. I specialize in the rigorous, evidence-based economic analysis that builds the case for allocating scarce resources to their most productive uses. I bring a unique dual perspective to this work: as a former high-level public official and now as a specialist consultant.
As Director General for Public Investment at the Ministry of Finance, I was responsible for the efficiency of a US$1 billion infrastructure portfolio. I led sweeping public financial management (PFM) reforms and institutionalized the use of cost-benefit analysis to ensure public funds were directed toward high-impact projects.
This insider’s perspective informs my practical, results-oriented consulting work, which is trusted by institutions such as the World Bank. My approach is grounded in world-class technical education, including a Master’s in International Development Policy (with a focus on Public Finance Management) from Duke University and a specialized M.Sc. from the Barcelona School of Economics.
My analysis empowers you to make a definitive, evidence-based case for your project, proving its claim on scarce resources. More importantly, it provides the critical foresight to select and design projects where sustainable job creation is an explicit aim, not just a byproduct. By quantifying how investments create the foundations for a vibrant economy, I help you build the case for a future where progress anywhere fuels progress everywhere.
