As a healthcare management researcher, I study how both "big P" (state and federal) and "little p" (organizational) policies shape healthcare delivery systems. I primarily use large-scale administrative datasets and causal inference methods, drawn from both econometrics and data science.
A central theme of my research is analyzing conflicting institutional logics, including strategies to manage competing goals and the (unintended) consequences. I primarily focus on the healthcare industry—where financial, clinical, and social goals often conflict—but the implications of my research apply broadly to cross-sector organizations managing competing demands.
In June 2026, I will join the faculty at the University of Miami Herbert Business School as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Health Management and Policy. I completed my PhD in Health Policy (Organizations and Management track) at the University of California, Berkeley in May 2026. My dissertation investigates how religious directives within U.S. Catholic hospitals affect operations, access to care, and patient outcomes.
Before starting my PhD, I spent over four years at Deloitte Consulting, where I worked with a variety of healthcare and philanthropic clients on strategy and operations. I graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with bachelors degrees in Economics and Health Policy & Management.
