About

PhD Student, MIT Economics

I will join the University of Michigan as an Assistant Professor of Economics in 2026 after a postdoctoral fellowship at Princeton University.

My fields are Trade, Macro, and Urban. 

My research primarily focuses on identifying the market failures and externalities that shape trade and the geography of economic activity. I subsequently determine how government can use policy to address them.
