AbOut ME

I am an applied microeconomics Ph.D. candidate at University of California-Santa Cruz. My research interests include healthcare utilization and medical expenditure, alcohol use/policing, higher education, behavioral economics and experimental economics. My current research leverages negative information shocks to the medical community to causally identify the impact of medical research on medical practices in inpatient settings.

I am on the 2021-2022 economics job market, and will be available for interviews at the 2022 ASSA Annual Meeting.
