I am a Ph.D. Candidate at Claremont Graduate University, and a member of the Computational Justice Lab.

 

My research is aligned with topics at the intersection of applied microeconomics, law and economics, and public policy, with a focus on the economics of crime and labor markets. I exam how social and legal institutions affect decisions and outcomes, focusing on how structural inequality and discrimination create distortions and inefficiencies.

​​

Using causal inference methods like differences in differences (DID) and instrumental variables (IV), I aim to produce empirical research that advances knowledge and inform policy. My work is informed by practical experiences with electoral campaigns, criminal justice institutions, and law enforcement, which strengthens my focus on providing policy relevant insights. 

​

I earned a M.A. in Economics from Claremont Graduate University, where my areas of research were in applied microeconomics. I also hold a Master of Commerce in Finance and Business Information Systems from the University of Sydney, and a B.B.A. in Finance from the University of Iowa.
