Welcome!
I am an Assistant Professor of Economics at Saginaw Valley State University (Saginaw, MI, Fall 2025 - present). I was a Visiting Assistant Professor of Economics at Wesleyan University (Middletown, CT, Fall 2023 - Summer 2025). I completed my PhD at Purdue University in August 2023.
My fields of specialization are Applied Microeconomics, Labor and Public Economics. In addition to these subjects, I also teach Macroeconomics. My research involves handling large datasets and using econometric methods to find causal estimates of the effects of education and related policies.
