Economist

Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis

About Me

I am an Economist at the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis with interests in macroeconomics and economic geography. I received my PhD in economics from Princeton University in 2020.

If you notice me shaking, it’s because I have an essential tremor. Feel free to ask me about it.
