Her PhD research was in the field of entrepreneurship focusing specially on immigrant entrepreneurs who are settled in Spain.

Rocío has worked as Research Analyst at the SEFORIS project under the FP7 of the European Union Research, specifically for the WP3. Furthermore, Rocio holds a M.Sc. in Social Policy at University of Brasilia in Brazil. Her thesis focused on the prevention of the HIV/Aids among youth people.

Currently, she takes a FP7 People COFUND fellowship to research at the Centre d'Economie Sociale at the HEC Management School at the University of Liege. As a researcher, she realized that data and information are important resourses for research.
