Thank you for visiting my academic website. I am a fifth-year Ph.D. student in economics at New York University.
My research interests lie in macroeconomics and finance, with a focus on consumption, expectations, and information frictions.
I study their implications for monetary policy, fiscal/public policy, as well as the linkage between financial markets and the real economy.
