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 finance and macroeconomics, with focus on household finance and monetary and fiscal policy.
Within these areas, my current research aims to better understand the roles of consumption, expectation formation, and information frictions.
