I am a Principal Economist at the Federal Reserve Board, in the Global Modeling Studies section of the Division of International Finance. Prior to joining the Board, I was an assistant professor in the Department of Economics at Cornell University. I received my Ph.D. in economics from New York University, under the supervision of Gianluca Violante and Mark Gertler, and my B.A. from Princeton University.

My research studies labor markets over the business cycle, including the dynamics of unemployment and wages, the earnings cost of job loss, and the role of job search and labor supply in the transmission of monetary policy to employment. I approach these questions by combining microdata analysis, quantitative modeling, and time-series methods. My work has been published in the American Economic Review and the Review of Economic Studies.
