About

I am a fifth-year economics PhD student at Stanford University. As a labor economist, my academic research studies job loss and its many consequences, including incomplete unemployment insurance (UI) take-up, firm responses to UI, long-run wage dynamics, and retraining at postsecondary institutions.

Since 2022, I have also worked as an Operations Research Specialist (economist) at the Washington State Employment Security Department researching UI access, take-up, and labor supply responses.

My dissertation research is supported in part by the Washington Center for Equitable Growth and Stanford Impact Labs.
