Ph.D. candidate in Economics
University of Michigan
I am a Ph.D. candidate in Economics at the University of Michigan. My research interests lie in labor economics, with a particular focus on the determinants of career choices and trajectories. My work examines how changes in occupational skill requirements shape individuals’ career paths over time.
Before starting my Ph.D., I worked as a research assistant at the Zell/Lurie Real Estate Center at the Wharton School. I earned an M.A. in Economics from Columbia University and a B.A. in Economics from The Ohio State University.
I am on the job market this academic year, 2025-2026.
