Pamela K. Starr (Ph.D. University of Southern California, 1993) is the Director of the U.S.-Mexico Network and a Professor of the Practice of International Relations and Public Diplomacy at the University of Southern California. She is also a Senior Advisor at Monarch Global Strategies. She was previously a senior Latin America analyst at the Eurasia Group (a leading global political risk consulting firm) where she led the Mexico practice. Prior to joining the Eurasia Group, she was a professor of Latin American political economy at the Instituto Tecnológico Autónomo de México (ITAM) in Mexico City for eight years (1997-2005). Dr. Starr has focused on Mexican politics, economics, and foreign policy, US-Mexico relations, and the politics of economic policymaking for over 30 years. She has a deep understanding of Mexico – its politics, policymaking, institutional structure, macro-economy, and culture. This knowledge is reflected in numerous articles, book chapters, and policy reports on Mexico and its relations with the United States. Dr. Starr has advised the US Secretary of State and the Mexican Foreign Minister, several US Ambassadors to Mexico and the Assistant Secretaries of State for Western Hemisphere Affairs, and many other government officials from both countries, and has testified before the US Congress. She is also an active speaker on these subjects at venues ranging from the IMF, World Economic Forum, Inter-American Development Bank, to the Mexico Business Summit, the Mexican Banking Association, and the American Chamber/Mexico.
