CV: PDF
I'm an Economics PhD student at UC Berkeley.
My interests are in microeconomic theory. I've worked on incentive design, foundations, and AI. In 2025 I completed the Economics MPhil at Oxford, where I was fortunate to be advised by Meg Meyer and Ludvig Sinander. I previously studied philosophy at LSE.
