Welcome to my website! I am a Ph.D. student in Economics at the University of Chicago.

My current research spans heterogeneous agent macroeconomics, decision theory, and social networks. I am interested in understanding how models with heterogeneity can be used to explain inequality, labor market outcomes, and the sensitive tradeoffs of policymaking. I am also interested in studying frictions in information acquisition and belief formation, and how they shape both micro and macroeconomic outcomes.

Work aside, I love watching and playing a variety of sports, listening to and playing music, and I try to learn something new almost all the time.
