I am a sixth-year PhD candidate in Economics at Louisiana State University.

My research interest is in the field of Labor Economics, with a particular focus on Economics of Immigration. In my job market paper, I study how immigration-induced local labor supply shocks affect workers and establishments across skill distribution in US counties. I am also interested in Economics of Religiosity and Health Economics in the contexts of local labor markets and mental health, respectively.

I am on the 2024-25 academic job market. Please do not hesitate to reach out!
