I’m a PhD Candidate in Political Economics at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. I’m fascinated by questions that explore the interplay between political institutions and economic development. Under what conditions do economic shocks trigger political reform? How do political institutions influence market structures? How does the regulatory environment influence the behavior of banking systems and other financial institutions? I tackle these questions using a variety of methods, including formal models, collecting archival data, and causal inference techniques.
