My CV is available here.

I am a PhD candidate in the Accounting and Finance group at the University of Edinburgh Business School and I am on the 2024-2025 job market. My research focuses on how changing climate patterns and biodiversity loss impact financial markets and corporate dynamics, with a particular interest in applying geospatial climate and environmental data. I was a visiting scholar at the School of International and Public Affairs at Columbia University for the Fall 2024 semester.

I will be attending the Baruch/Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis Climate Finance Conference in NY in March. 

Before my starting my PhD, I spent time as an economist at Moody's Analytics in Philadelphia and London. There, I developed retail stress testing models at the vintage, loan, and pool level for several large U.S. banks submitting to the Federal Reserve’s CCAR and DFAST programs for regulatory compliance.
