I am an Assistant Professor of Economics at McGill University. I study the economics of cities and labour markets. Current projects investigate the microgeography of economic spillovers between firms and workers, the determinants of success in the labour market and career dynamics, and the consequences of transportation infrastructure investments. I received my PhD from the University of Toronto in 2018.
