About

More than a résumé

A junior at Indiana University's Kelley School of Business, triple-majoring in Economic Consulting, Business Analytics, and Sustainable Business. Focused on ESG, economics, policy, and business strategy.

Currently serving as a Business Analyst at Cribdata, a Barcelona-based startup building consent-first infrastructure for GDPR-compliant data acquisition, governance, and activation, and VP of Consulting at Nitara. Previously led Lighthouse Advisory, a cross-university pro bono consulting group. Conducting independent research on banking desert formation and the effectiveness of New Markets Tax Credit interventions, using difference-in-differences methodology and FDIC branch-level panel data across U.S. census tracts.

Founder of Do More Run Club at IU. Completed 3.5 marathons in one year including the LA Marathon. Volunteered at Nations Ministry Center in Nashville since 2022, returning every school break to tutor and mentor children from underserved communities.

The thread across all of it is a simple mission: help build a world where businesses create lasting impact alongside strong returns. That means better decisions, more honest risk pricing, and firms that leave things better than they found them. Both my parents are physicians. Growing up watching them dedicate their lives to making people better shaped how I approach work. The goal is the same, just at the scale of institutions and policy.

Working paper

The Retreat of Capital

Do market-based interventions reverse banking desert formation? This paper tests whether New Markets Tax Credit investment reduced banking desert prevalence across U.S. census tracts between 2010 and 2019, using a national branch-level panel geocoded from FDIC Summary of Deposits data and matched to NMTC project geographies.

Data FDIC Summary of Deposits / Census ACS / NMTC Project Data
Method Difference-in-differences · OLS with clustered standard errors
Period 2010 – 2019
Status In progress

Core hypothesis

"Sustained multi-period NMTC investment reverses banking desert formation, while one-off allocations show no statistically significant effect. This suggests program design, not market mechanisms, limits intervention effectiveness."
