I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Economics at Northwestern University, a Faculty Research Fellow at the National Bureau of Economic Research, and a Research Affiliate at the Centre for Economic Policy Research. I also serve as an Associate Editor at the Journal of the European Economic Association.  

My research interests are in macroeconomics and macro-finance, with a focus on climate change and inequality.  My work seeks to advance two core research agendas. The first concerns the role of energy and climate change for growth and economic fluctuations. The second is to understand how economic inequality and household finance matter for the macroeconomy and macroeconomic policy. My research highlights that climate change and inequality have important macroeconomic implications, in the short and in the long run.
