I am a Ph.D. candidate in economics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison on the 2025-26 job market.

My research interests are in econometrics, particularly at the intersection of nonparametric statistics and causal inference. Within this area, my current research studies estimation and inference in the regression discontinuity design using local likelihood techniques. My work leverages statistical theory to develop and improve empirical tools used to solve applied problems.
