I am a macroeconomist. I study policy-relevant questions, including how supply chain pressures reshape the transmission of monetary policy and terms-of-trade shocks; how U.S. monetary shocks spill over internationally through firms’ balance sheets and debt-maturity frictions; and how central bank credibility shapes the interpretation of policy surprises and the formation of expectations. I combine empirical analysis and structural modeling, with an emphasis on text-based measurement using large language models. This toolkit enables novel micro- and macro-level datasets that advance both research and real-time economic monitoring.
