His research interests focus on transport and society studies, including social aspects of transportation, daily mobility, public transportation, and urban development. His research agenda includes studies on territorial accessibility to different types of urban opportunities, primarily jobs but also education and health opportunities. It also covers transport affordability, or the ability to pay and the effects of various fare mechanisms, as well as the analysis of space-time constraints families have to face to access social services. In the analysis of accessibility to urban opportunities, as well as public transportation policies, he emphasizes equity and distribution aspects, as well as their role in social development and well-being.

He holds a degree in Sociology from the Universidad Catolica del Uruguay (1999), an MA in Political Science from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (2003), and a PhD in Urban Studies from the Universidad Católica de Chile (2012).
