Biography
As an applied microeconomist, my research focus is at the intersection of public and labor economics. I leverage tools of causal inference and data science to study issues in education, housing, and immigration policy, with an emphasis on inequality.My recent work employs natural experiments to examine the impacts of school quality information and school choice policies on residential/school sorting and on the housing market.
