I am a Ph.D. candidate in economics at Washington University in St. Louis. My dissertation studies the effects of financial frictions on entrepreneurial productivity and aggregate performance. My dissertation committee is comprised by Prof. Ping Wang (Chair), Prof. Bruce C. Petersen, and Prof. Gaetano Antinolfi. I am in the job market this year, and will be attending the ASSA meetings in Atlanta and the SEA meetings in San Antonio.
