I am an Economist in the Stress Testing Section of the Division of Supervision and Regulation at the Board of Governors. I completed my Ph.D. at the University of Pennsylvania under the supervision of Ken Wolpin, George Mailath and Petra Todd.

My broad research interests include empirical microeconomics and applied microeconomic theory. Currently, I am working on topics in social networks and payments.
