I am a Senior Economist at the Economic Research Department of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City. My research interests lie at the intersection of labor and public economics. In my research, I apply empirical methods to study various topics, including homelessness, housing, and immigration. Prior to joining the Federal Reserve Bank in 2021, I completed my Ph.D. in Economics at UCLA.
