Ph.D. Candidate, Michigan State University Department of Economics

I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Economics at Michigan State University, specializing in applied microeconomics. My research interest lies at the intersection of public economics and labor economics, with a focus on understanding how households and firms respond to changes in policy and incentives. 

My work leverages large-scale datasets, including detailed retailer transaction records, to study how government transfer programs and economic shocks affect consumer behavior and market outcomes. 

I will be on the job market in the 2025-2026 academic year.
