Jesús Villero

I am an applied microeconomist at the Penn Wharton Budget Model, working with the demographic microsimulation and policy analysis teams.

My research sits at the intersection of labor economics, public economics, economic demography, and public policy.

I earned a Ph.D. in Economics from Georgia State University, where I was affiliated with the Georgia Policy Labs, and an M.A. in Economics from Georgetown University. Between degrees, I helped run randomized controlled trials at Innovations for Poverty Action. Learn more about me here.
