About me

I am the Associate Research Director at Yale’s Healthcare Affordability Lab, where I guide the development and execution of the lab’s research projects.

My current research focuses on hospital market competition, vertical integration, and the effects of federal healthcare policies.

I received my PhD in Economics from Boston College in May 2026. I specialized in Industrial Organization and Health Economics, and my research has examined Medicare alternative payment models and hospital-insurer vertical integration.

Before joining Yale, I worked on antitrust and litigation matters at Charles River Associates and taught econometrics and machine learning at Boston College.

Research Fields: Industrial Organization, Health Economics, Applied Econometrics.
