Hello! Welcome to my website.

I am a PhD candidate in Economics at the University of Toronto. My research lies at the intersection of Industrial Organization, Applied Microeconomics, and Strategy, focusing on understanding the key drivers of entrepreneurial outcomes. In my job market paper, I explore the mechanisms through which mentorship shapes entrepreneurial strategy within the context of a startup accelerator.

I apply various methods, such as causal inference, structural models, and causal machine learning, and I use natural language processing (NLP) techniques and generative models to collect and analyze data.​

I will be on the 2024-25 academic job market.
