I am an Assistant Professor of Economics at Pennsylvania State University.

My research spans financial markets, payments, and fintech; household finance and real estate; and search and matching. I study how search and information frictions shape payment systems, asset markets, and security design. I also study how household balance sheets and aggregate financial conditions shape housing and migration decisions
