Associate Researcher
Applied Statistics in the Political-Electoral Field
Within the framework of the 2018 Costa Rican national elections—marked by unprecedented political volatility—I collaborated with the CIEP-UCR research team to strengthen the robustness of the post-election study. My contribution was fundamental during the design phase, where I helped formulate strategic questions for the national survey of 1,500 individuals, ensuring that the variables captured the new dynamics of citizen behavior with precision. I was responsible for transforming complex data into actionable insights through the creation of data visualizations and the execution of descriptive statistical analyses. These tools allowed for the identification of key patterns in social discontent and participation, facilitating a clear interpretation of the sociodemographic and attitudinal factors that influenced the electoral process. My work ensured that the project’s findings were presented with scientific rigor and high visual clarity, consolidating this study’s position as the most technically credible benchmark in the country.
