Welcome!

I am a fifth-year Ph.D. student in economics at Duke University. My research interests lie in labor economics, the economics of the family, and the economics of education, with a particular focus on structural methods. I have broad theoretical and empirical interests in topics such as marriage market matching, fertility, job search, and intra-household decision-making.
