I am a Ph.D. candidate in Economics at Harvard University and a Ph.D. affiliate at the Center for International Development. My research interests lie at the intersection of development and urban economics, with a focus on how mobility and public transportation systems in developing countries impact economic outcomes. 

Prior to my doctoral studies, I was an empirical research fellow at Stanford University, and I received a B.A. in Mathematics and Economics, with a minor in Computer Science from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

I am on the 2024-2025 job market.
