Research Economist, Department of Global Development
College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, Cornell University

I am a research economist in the Department of Global Development at Cornell University. My research interests are in applied economic theory, particularly industrial organization, game theory, and mechanism design. I also have secondary interests in experimental economics and political economy.

My current project with Aaron Benanav develops a framework for individual and social choice under value pluralism, integrating normative concerns into economic theory. I also have interests in mapping international production networks and the design of non-market allocation mechanisms.

Previously, I was a staff research associate for Robert Brenner at UCLA, where I conducted empirical research on long-run trends in profitability, capital accumulation, trade, and the rise of the financial sector across advanced and late-developing economies, with a particular focus on US, European, and East Asian industrial development.

I completed an MS in Economics from the University of Wisconsin–Madison.
