I am a Bolivian geopolitical risk analyst with an MSc in International Relations from the London School of Economics (LSE), specialising in data-driven analysis and the impact of global power dynamics on peripheral regions. My research critically explores the international development paradigm, the geopolitical influences shaping Latin America—especially through the eyes of Bolivia—and sustainable development strategies.
My publication record primarily focuses on Bolivia, providing strategic assessments relevant to Latin America’s political economy, with a distinct emphasis on Bolivian social, economic, and political dynamics. This includes contributions to studies on the influence of U.S. foreign policy, sustainable development goals, and local governance.
With experience as a diplomat at Bolivia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, a lecturer at leading Bolivian universities, and a private-sector consultant, I bring a balanced mix of practical expertise and rigorous academic analysis.
Inspired by coauthoring The Municipal Atlas of the SDGs in Bolivia, I transitioned into a career focused on microdata, data analysis, and data visualisation. Through my project “Bolivia en Datos,” available on my website, I am collecting Bolivian statistics that are not publicly available but are essential for informed analysis. This platform provides detailed data analysis, data visualisation, and thematic articles to help anyone interested understand Bolivia better through hard data.
I utilise tools such as Power BI, Stata, SPSS, Excel, ArcGIS, QGIS, and Python to analyse and visualise complex datasets. My goal is to deliver actionable insights that illuminate Bolivia’s development challenges and regional political economy within the broader context of global geopolitics.
