He earned his BA from the Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona in 1992, his MSc from the University of York in 1994, and his PhD in Economics from the Univeristy of Essex in 1998.

His research has been published in monographs, book chapters, and in a variety of journals including European Economic Review, Economica, British Journal of Industrial Relations, Review of Income and Wealth, Journal of Economic Surveys and International Tax and Public Finance.
