About me:
I will be joining the School of Global Policy and Strategy at UC San Diego as an Assistant Professor in Fall 2025. Previously, I worked as a Research Economist in the Development Research Group at the World Bank. I hold a Ph.D. in Economics from UC Berkeley.
My research interests lie in international trade, urban economics, and development economics. I focus on understanding how different forms of market integration affect aggregate welfare and productivity in developing countries.
