Welcome to my page!
I am a Ph.D. student in the Department of Economics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). My research interests lie in public, labor, and organizational economics, in the context of lower-income countries. I have been involved in research projects in Côte d’Ivoire, Ethiopia, Senegal, and Togo.
