As a Credit Analyst at Morgan Stanley in New York, I assess, manage, and mitigate risk across alternatives (commercial real estate, financials, & commodities). My expertise lies in conducting financial and economic analyses that incorporate market dynamics, macroeconomic trends, and geopolitical developments. I transform these insights into actionable strategies for finance and policy executives. Before joining Morgan Stanley, I led the Data Team of 13 at the Pardee Institute for International Futures, held a trade Rosenthal Fellowship in the Executive Office of the U.S. President, and was a ThinkSwiss Research Scholar to the Centre for Economic Policy Research’s President.Academically, I earned an M.A. in Global Economic Affairs from the University of Denver, where I also read a B.S. in Business Administration - Finance and B.A. in International Studies, summa cum laude. Supported by Colorado’s top merit full-ride Boettcher Scholarship, I received the University’s highest undergraduate honor and Rhodes Scholarship nomination. Shaped by my U.S.-Colombian heritage, I have lived and studied in the U.S., England, Scotland, South Africa, and Switzerland. Motivated to give back, I serve on Morgan Stanley’s Risk NY Philanthropy Committee and on the 2026/2027 U.S. G20/G7 Youth Summit Planning Teams, having served recently as the first U.S. Youth Food Security Delegate to ASEAN+.
