Biography

Hi, welcome to my website.

I am an Assistant Professor in Economics at Michigan State University. My research interests are in urban and spatial economics, international trade, macroeconomics and labor economics. Specifically, I am interested in understanding how microeconomic heterogeneity and interactions affect distributional and aggregate outcomes.

I received my Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Toronto in November, 2024. I was previously a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Mansueto Institute of Urban Innovation and Kenneth C. Griffin Department of Economics at the University of Chicago.

You can find my CV here.
