Biography
I am a Ph.D. student in Economics at the University of Calgary. My research focuses on innovation and entrepreneurship, labour economics, and development economics, with a particular interest in how incentives shape innovation outcomes.
I have worked as a research assistant on projects in innovation, development, and applied econometrics, and have extensive teaching experience in econometrics at the undergraduate, master's, and Ph.D. levels.
I currently serve as President of the Economics Graduate Association (EGA), where I support initiatives that strengthen the graduate research community and promote students' academic and professional development.
