I am a macroeconomist interested in how cognitive imprecision, information frictions, and limited attention
shape individual choices and aggregate economic outcomes. My research uses a blend of applied theory, empirical,
and experimental methods and focuses on inflation dynamics, monetary policy effectiveness, and income inequality.
