About

Hi! I am a predoctoral research fellow at Stanford University, working with Professor Matthew Gentzkow. I was previously at MIT, where I obtained a Master’s in Data, Economics, and Development Policy.

I am interested in development and health economics, particularly in their intersection with politics, trade, and environmental issues.

You can find my full CV here.
