I am passionate about teaching and mentoring students in economics, statistics, and data science. My teaching draws on applied econometrics, causal inference, and computational methods, with a focus on making rigorous quantitative tools accessible and relevant to real-world policy questions.

Teaching Philosophy

I believe in learning by doing. My courses combine theoretical foundations with computational practice, encouraging students to engage with real data from the very first class. I integrate programming tools (Python, R, Stata) into the curriculum so that students develop practical skills alongside their statistical intuition. I am also committed to leveraging AI-powered educational tools to personalize learning and improve student outcomes, an area I actively research.
