About Me

I am an Assistant Professor of Economics at Duke University and an NBER Research Fellow. I received my Ph.D. in economics from The University of Chicago in 2013, and my B.A. in econ and math from New York University in 2007. I am from the Bronx, NY and I currently live in Durham, with my husband Gregor, our daughter Sally, and our dogs Vinny & Chapito.

My research interests include search, labor economics, family economics, consumption dynamics and anything broadly fitting under the title of Applied Macroeconomics. I also have an interest in all things computational (ML, numerical methods, etc.).
