International Monetary Fund

I am an Economist in the Research Department at the International Monetary Fund. I graduated from University of Chicago with a Ph.D. in Economics in June 2016. I study the intersection between labor economics and macroeconomics. My general approach to research is to use micro level data to gain deeper insight for aggregate labor market dynamics. I am generally interested in understanding the role of worker's heterogeneity in the macroeconomic labor context.
