Hello and welcome!
I am a Ph.D. Candidate in Economics and Urban Sustainability at Wayne State University.
My research focuses on Sustainable Finance, ESG, and Health Economics.
Feel free to explore my work and check back for updates.
Research Insights
I am committed to understanding how businesses and institutions shape economic and environmental outcomes.
Featured Research
My dissertation examines the relationship between capital markets and firms' environmental and social footprints. Grounded in ESG performance analysis, this research provides key insights for investors, corporate leaders, and policymakers.
Henry Ford Health
In collaboration with Henry Ford Health, we study the health trajectories of food-insecure patients involved within a hospital-based intervention program, evaluating how access to whole food nourishment shapes patient outcomes and investment approaches in healthcare.
Lean & Green Michigan
Through my partnership with Lean and Green MI, we assess the financial outcomes of PACE-funded projects. This work strengthens my approach to evaluating sustainable investments and sharpens my understanding of financial strategy's role in advancing sustainability goals.
