About Me

I received my PhD in Finance from the Kellogg School of Management, Northwestern University in June 2024. I am currently a faculty member at the Eller College of Management, University of Arizona. My CV is here. 

I  study the global ramifications of US fiscal policy.  My papers: i) US Fiscal Cycle, Risk-Sharing and the US Safety Puzzle and ii) Global Footprint of US Fiscal Policy tie the US fiscal condition directly to puzzling phenomena in international macro-finance such as i) the US exorbitant privilege, ii) the dollar's countercyclical dynamics, iii) the global financial cycle in risky asset prices and iv) the countercyclical US wealth share. 

My papers have won awards at several major academic finance conferences:

• "Global Footprint of US Fiscal Policy" 

  •  Western Finance Association (WFA): I was awarded the Brattle Group WFA PhD Candidate Award for Outstanding Research (2023)

  • Financial Management Association (FMA): I was the winner of the Best Paper in Investments  Award (2023)

  • Asian Meeting of Econometric Society (AMES):  I was awarded the Young Scholars Fund (YSF) Award for Outstanding Research (2023)

•  "US Fiscal Cycle, Risk-Sharing and the US Safety Puzzle"

  • Western Finance Association (WFA): I was awarded the Brattle Group WFA PhD Candidate Award for Outstanding Research (2022)

  • European Finance Association (EFA): I was the winner of the Engelbert-Dockner Memorial Prize for the Best Paper by Young Researchers (2023)
