About Me
I am a postdoctoral scholar in the Economics department of the New York University in Abu Dhabi. I use a combination of applied microeconomic theory and experiments to study questions in political, labor and development economics. I received my Ph.D. in Economics from the University of California, Irvine in May 2022. I was a Fund Intern at the International Monetary Fund in summer 2021.
I will be on the Economics Job Market, 2024-2025.
