I am a Hoover Fellow and SIEPR Research Scholar at Stanford University. In 2027, I will join the University of Chicago as a Saieh Family Fellow at the Becker Friedman Institute for Economics, before joining the Kenneth C. Griffin Department of Economics as an Assistant Professor in 2028.

I work on questions in urban economics and political economy using tools from international trade and empirical industrial organization.

I received a PhD in economics from MIT in 2026. You can find my CV here, and my Google Scholar profile here.
