I am a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Urban Economics Lab at the Center for Real Estate at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. 

I study how economic activity is distributed across space and individuals using modern applied econometrics and quantitative models at the intersection of urban, spatial, and environmental economics. I explore how the distribution shapes economic behavior and welfare, and how we can improve policies to mitigate regional disparities in economic activity.
