I am an Assistant Professor of Finance at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.  

My research seeks to understand how prices and quantities are jointly determined in interconnected financial markets. A central focus is on the frictions faced by large financial intermediaries such as broker-dealers and institutional investors; in particular, how the trade-offs they face shape asset prices, liquidity, and the transmission of shocks across markets. By combining theoretical modeling with empirical analysis, I study the mechanisms through which market interconnections influence asset prices and macro-financial outcomes.

I hold a Ph.D. in Finance from the Stanford Graduate School of Business and an A.B. in Economics, magna cum laude, from Harvard College. Prior to graduate school, I was a consultant at McKinsey & Company’s New York office and a private equity investor at the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA). I am a CFA charterholder and an external consultant for the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
