I am a first year Ph.D. student in the Department of Economics at Stanford University. 

Previously, I was a Pre-doctoral Research Fellow at the National Bureau of Economic Research and Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research, working with Heidi Williams.  I am interested in the economics of science and innovation, policy evaluation, and applied microeconometrics. In 2022, I graduated from Cornell University with a B.S. in Public Policy.
