About

I am currently a Post-doctoral Fellow of the Digital, Data, and Design (D^3) Institute at Harvard Business School. Before that, I earned my Ph.D. in Economics from University of Southern California in 2022.


My research falls on the topic of Digital Platforms, and extends to the related fields of Operation Management and Industrial Organization. My recent work studies how video streaming platforms compete with the freemium strategy, labor supply and incentive schemes on ride-sharing and food-delivery platforms, and multihoming behavior in ride-sharing apps. 


I am on the 2023 - 2024 job market and available for interviews during INFORMS 2023 and ASSA 2024.
