I am a second-year PhD Candidate in the Department of Economics at MIT interested in development economics, international trade, and econometrics. In September 2020, I graduated with a Master of Applied Science in Data, Economics, and Development Policy (DEDP) from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) at the age of 18. During the Fall semester of the 2020-2021 academic year, I continued as an MIT Advanced Study Fellow.
