CV

• Estimated the causal effect of Washington's 7% capital gains tax on high-income out-migration in 2021
• Built a synthetic control unit via a differences-in-differences design, matched on Washington's low-income migration pre-trends
• Found statistically significant evidence, via permutation placebo test, of moderate high-income out-migration caused by the tax

• Built a database of 11.8 million mathematical theorems and their 18 million dependencies from informal sources

• Built a semantic search engine over 9.2 million mathematical theorems using a vector embedding pipeline and AWS infrastructure
• Accepted to the 2026 ICLR Workshop on LLM Reasoning

• Examined how Okun's Law changed in the U.S. across recession periods and states using 2005–2025 data with R
• Found no evidence of coefficient heterogeneity across recession periods, and only weak evidence across states

• Analyzed how well the Mankiw-Romer-Weil Solow growth model captures economic dynamics of the U.S., Japan, and Germany from 1950–2023 with Python
• Found that a SINDy-driven model outperformed those with constant or time-varying exogenous parameters
