Welcome to my website!

I am a PhD candidate in Economics at Boston College. 

My current work focuses on firm behavior, household finance, resource misallocation, and productivity. 

I have also gained policy and research experience as a Dissertation Fellow at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago (Summer 2025), a PhD Intern at the International Monetary Fund (Summer 2024), and a Research Assistant at the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston (2017-2020).

I will join the International Monetary Fund as an Economist in Fall 2026.
