About Me:
I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Economics at Syracuse University. My research interests are international trade, industrial organization, and the Chinese economy. My current research focuses on buyer-seller relationships in international trade, constructing import prices for different income groups, and the effects of tariffs.
From 2014- 2021, I was an economist at the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, International Finance Division.
