I’m a J.D. student at Yale Law School and a Ph.D student at Yale Economics. My interests lie in the macroeconomic, labor-market, and regulatory implications of powerful AI systems. I also work on time-series analysis and econometrics.
Most recently, I worked as a Research Consultant at OpenAI, developing measures of occupational exposure to AI with the Economics and Frontier Evaluations teams.
Previously, I was an Advisor to the Board of Directors at the Central Bank of Argentina and a Research Analyst in the Financial Stability Division of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. I graduated summa cum laude from Columbia University with a B.A. in Economics–Mathematics.
I am an avid marathon runner and mountain climber.
