I will be on the AFA/AEA 2023-2024 academic job market.

My research agenda focuses on how technology and the emergence of nonbank intermediaries are changing the banking landscape, and the implications for financial stability, competition, and consumer welfare. 

I combine empirical analysis with theory and structural estimation. I enjoy constructing new datasets that can shed light on under-explored dimensions of financial intermediation, such as digital platform adoption and branch service quality. Coupling these data with an identification strategy and a model framework allows me to disentangle economic mechanisms, quantify aggregate effects, and evaluate counterfactuals.
