What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters innovative research and impactful teaching in economics.

I am an academic economist with over two decades of experience in research, teaching, and academic leadership. My specialization lies in micro- and macroeconomic analysis, financial markets, and development policy. My scholarly work has been published in leading journals, significantly shaping the understanding of various areas of social development.

Throughout my career, I have held faculty and program leadership roles at several academic institutions, demonstrating a strong commitment to innovative, student-centered teaching across undergraduate and graduate programs. My academic journey is enriched by a global perspective and a robust record of commercialized research and applied policy impact. I also engage as an expert and researcher in the development of advanced AI systems, contributing to the pedagogical integration of generative technologies in economics and finance.
