Bio
I am a senior financial economist at the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia. My research interests are in consumer finance, health economics, and disaster risk and insurance. Previously, I worked as a Staff Economist for President Obama’s Council of Economic Advisers and for the Census Bureau.
The views expressed here are my own and do not necessarily represent the views of the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia or the Federal Reserve System.
