Welcome! I am a fifth-year Ph.D. student in Financial Economics at Yale University.
My research focuses on corporate finance with an emphasis on financial intermediation and regulation, financial technology, and political economy. I use administrative microdata, quasi-experimental designs, and machine-learning methods. My current work studies how banks and nonbank intermediaries produce and aggregate information in financial markets, and how monetary policy and regulation shape allocation and its distributional consequences. In complementary work, I use large-scale unstructured data to construct proxies for “soft” information for borrowers, and I assess how these measures map to financial decisions and credit risk.
Prior to joining Yale, I was a pre-doctoral fellow at the Fama-Miller Center at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. I have also worked at the Reserve Bank of India, and as part of a research division in the network of the French Prime Minister (CEPII).
