Welcome!

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Sustainability Economics Group at ETH Zurich.

My research bridges the fields of environmental economics, public economics, and macroeconomics, with a current focus on carbon pricing, inequality, and international climate finance.

I received my PhD from Yale University, specializing in climate economics. I hold master’s degrees from the London School of Economics and the University of Cambridge.
