I'm a PhD candidate in Management Science at MIT Sloan where I'm advised by Professors Rahul Bhui and David Rand. 

My research focuses on how how environmental and contextual factors shape belief formation and decision-making. Recent projects have spanned topics from formal Bayesian modeling of scientific consensus to drift-diffusion modeling showing how intuitions about information quality are formed and impact belief in misinformation to using cross-cutting elite cues to communicate the realities of climate change. Ultimately through the use of experimental and computational methods, I hope to provide insights that can be used to improve the design of social media and political/climate communications.

I grew up in Phoenix, AZ, and graduated from Swarthmore College in 2019 with high honors in Economics and Political Science. I previously work as a senior research analyst at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York with economists in the Money and Payment Studies group on research and policy topics related to both consumer finance and macro-finance, including inter-bank lending and money markets.
