About Me
Home About Me Consulting Teaching Contact Information: [email protected] Claudia Araiza, PhD

I am trained in economics, statistics, and the management sciences.

I have about 15 years of professional experience as a researcher, data analyst, and economist at several academic and governmental settings.

I received my PhD degree in Economics from Claremont Graduate University with a specialization in “Business & Financial Economics”.

I also took MBA classes at the Drucker Graduate School of Management.

I obtained a master’s and bachelor’s degree in economics from the Economics Department at San Diego State University.

My bachelor’s program was also in International Business – a CIBER program part of the College of Business Administration at SDSU.

While pursuing my degrees, I was always a full-time student and occasionally worked independently on several consultancy projects in data analysis (using STATA and SAS).

At the moment, I devote 70% of my available time to teaching and administrative duties at Southern States University, 25% to my consulting practice, and 5% to research and professional activities.
