As a 4th-year Ph.D. candidate at Washington State University, my field interests focus on applied econometrics and labor economics. My commitment to educational excellence is reflected in the courses I've led, from econometrics to money and banking, ensuring students are well-equipped for the field of economics.The journey towards my Economics Ph.D. has honed my communication skills and deepened my understanding of applied microeconomics, which I've applied empirical analysis and causal inference in recent research. With a passion for applied economics, I strive to contribute to the industry and beyond.
