Bio

I am currently a Postdoctoral Scholar at the University of Notre Dame. I received my Ph.D. in Economics from the Department of Economics at Notre Dame in May 2024. My research focuses on the intersection of monetary policy and economic dynamics, with an emphasis on labor markets, inflation expectations, and the extensive margin of the production sector.

My Ph.D. advisors are Eric Sims, Jeffrey R. Campbell, and James X. Sullivan.

My Job Market Paper examines the heterogeneous response of unemployment rates to unexpected expansionary monetary policy for high- and low-skilled workers using time-series analysis. Building on these findings, the welfare analysis shows that targeting both inflation and skill-specific unemployment, with a focus on low-skilled workers, leads to better welfare outcomes and lower labor market volatility than standard Taylor rules.
