Tippie Research Fellow in Economics. Her academic work bridges theoretical and applied economics, with a focus on macroeconomic policy, financial institutions, and development.
Her research interests include Macroeconomics, Monetary Economics, Financial Economics, Public Economics, Bankruptcy, Entrepreneurship, Taxation, and Health Finance and Insurance. These areas are deeply interconnected, often analyzing how institutional frameworks and policy design affect economic outcomes, particularly in credit markets, labor markets, and public finance. Her work frequently employs dynamic general equilibrium models and contract theory to explore issues such as firm dynamics, resource misallocation, and welfare implications of tax and insurance systems.

They span top journals like Econometrica, Journal of Political Economy, and Economic Theory, indicating high scholarly impact. The articles collectively demonstrate a trajectory toward integrating political economy with macroeconomic modeling and examining how institutional quality shapes economic development.
