I am a Senior Lecturer at University of Technology Sydney, UTS Business School, Economics Discipline Group. I received my PhD in economics from Harvard University in 2016. My research is in the fields of microeconomic theory, market design, and economics of education. In particular, my research primarily focuses on the following two topics: (1) equity and access to education markets and (2) the long-term consequences of market mechanisms.
I am a visiting researcher at the University of Tokyo Market Design Center (UTMD) and a member of the Australian Education Markets Network.
