I am a finance Ph.D. candidate at Indiana University. My research focuses on household finance, especially on the costs and benefits of household debt relief policies. Prior to joining IU, I earned an M.S. in Mathematical Finance from Boston University and worked as a buy-side quantitative analyst in Charlottesville, Virginia.
In October 2026, my JMP won the Best PhD Student Paper Prize at the CEPR European Conference on Household Finance.
In September 2025, I received the Ph.D. Award at the 4th Holden Conference in Finance and Real Estate.
