About Augusto

My name is Augusto Gonzalez Bonorino and I am originally from Argentina. I graduated Summa Cum Laude with Honors from Marist College (NY) in May 2022 with a double major in Economics and Data Science. Currently, I am a full-time professor of economics theory and econometrics at Pomona College. Moreover, I am working through my Ph.D. in Economics, where I focus on the application of computational models (such as large language models, agent-based models, and simulation-based inference) to economic research.

I grew up playing rugby, soccer, skiing, and basketball. At 14 years old I switched to tennis, which eventually gave me the opportunity to pursue my undergraduate education in the United States on Division 1 athletic scholarship. I am a passionate advocate of interdisciplinary endeavors. My latest efforts in merging my interests with other sciences include learning quantum computing for my Honors thesis to solve high-dimensional Matrix Riccati differential equations. Moreover, I worked for four years in the subfield of AI called Natural Language Processing, particularly developing question-answering systems. Finally, a few years ago I started a blog on Medium called Entangled Mind (concealed information) along with a series of Udemy online courses on various topics - in Spanish - with my dad. Check the blog out and let me know your thoughts if you'd like :)

At the moment, my research lies on the intersection between experimental/behavioral economics and Large Language Models ((concealed information) I focus on studying if LLMs can serve as computational models of human behavior, to then understand incentives within a system and their usage as substitutes of real subjects in costly field experiments. Outside the classroom, I enjoy many activities such as teaching, outdoor sports, reading, exploring new things or places, listening to music, and watching movies. I look forward to getting to know you better and helping you navigate your learning journey.

I am passionate about teaching. I will try as many different approaches as I need to help you understand a concept. I am very hands-on, I like to talk about the problems we are trying to solve to develop a conceptual understanding first. Then, if needed, we move on to the technical details like the underlying mathematics or programming implementation. I am originally from Argentina, so if you prefer lessons in Spanish I'll be happy to adapt!

I can help you prepare for exams, incorporate AI tools into your study or research pipeline to increase productivity, learn a new topic you are passionate about, or even pick up Python or R to take your data science skills to the next level.

Details

There is no additional cost beyond the hourly fee. I will provide you with any material I suggest for complementing your studies (e.g., books, articles, codebases, ...) but please share anything relevant prior to our first lecture if you are preparing for an exam or specific assignment. This will help me tailor our lessons to your professor's material and increase the chances of success!
