I am a Ph.D. Candidate in Economics at the Vancouver School of Economics, University of British Columbia.

My research interests are in labour economics and applied microeconomics. In my job market paper, I study how unionized and non-unionized firms in Canada respond differently to negative, firm-specific demand shocks. Using linked employer-employee administrative data, I show that while both types of firms reduce employment by similar amounts, they adjust through different margins: union firms rely on early retirement of senior workers, whose wages are protected by collective-agreement floors, while non-union firms adjust by cutting hiring and wages. I then study how these different adjustment channels shape the distribution of costs across workers.

I expect to graduate in Fall 2027 and will be available for interviews in the 2026-2027 job market.
