I am a fourth-year PhD Candidate at Rice University.

My research focuses on how policy and industrial organization changes affect local and household credit markets. 

Prior to my doctoral studies, I received an MBA from New York University and a BSBA from Georgetown University in Finance, with a minor in English. Outside of academia, I was a Vice President at Goldman Sachs in New York City, specializing in launching new OTC derivative products.
