Welcome!

I am a Finance PhD student at the Kellogg School of Management, Northwestern University. I will be joining FGV EPGE as an Assistant Professor in August, 2025.

My research interests span Asset Pricing, Machine Learning/Econometrics, and Macro-Finance topics. Currently, my work mainly focuses on understanding how macroeconomic variables and different shocks impact the dynamics of the American yield curve.

I also have a secondary agenda testing implications of models with subjective beliefs for the predictability of market returns.

In the past, I also worked on high frequency econometric techniques for factor models.
