About

I am a Research Specialist at the Normal Lab, University of Chicago, and an incoming PhD student in Economics at MIT. I previously obtained an MSc in Econometrics and Mathematical Economics from LSE and a BSc in Economics from LMU Munich.

My research interests lie at the intersection of behavioral economics and AI, with applications to industrial organization and development.

You can find my full CV here.

I've had the privilege of advising and mentoring several younger students over the past years. If you have any questions regarding studying Economics, the EME, being a Pre-Doc, pursuing Econ Grad School, or just want to connect, don't hesitate to reach out!
