Hello!
I am a PhD Student in Economics and a Presidential Fellow at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and also a graduate affiliate at Harvard’s Center for History and Economics and the Institute of Labor Economics (IZA). 

My primary interests are in labor economics, with a focus on worker representation, wage inequality, and technical change. In my current research, I study what factors drive the formation of labor unions, highlighting the role of workers’ outside options in the labor market and the electoral representation of low-wage workers. In a closely related strand of work, I explore how unions, and other forms of worker representation, impact firms’ technology choices.
