I am a Ph.D. candidate in Economics at Harvard University. My research focuses on political and behavioral economics, with particular interests in the economics of attention and persuasion.
I will move to the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University as a Donald P. Jacobs Scholar (AY 2026-27) and an Assistant Professor (AY 2027-) in the Department of Managerial Economics and Decision Sciences.
