I am a PhD candidate in Economics at the University of Notre Dame with research interests in public, urban, and health economics. 

I am working with Notre Dame's Wilson Sheehan Lab for Economic Opportunities (LEO) on a national study on the impact of flexible financial assistance and will join the NYU Furman Center as a Postdoctoral Economics Fellow this fall.

I am an NBER graduate fellow and an affiliate of the University of Chicago's Inclusive Economy Lab (IEL) and LEO. My research has been supported by the Russell Sage Foundation and Notre Dame's Institute for Scholarship in the Liberal Arts. Before graduate school, I studied Economics and Political Science at Indiana University and worked for RTI International.
