Experience
Microsoft Research New England - Predoctoral Research Fellow
June 2022 - July 2024
I worked with a team of economists and computer scientists to study policy-relevant issues by leveraging a range of computational tools to analyze unique data. Here's a sample of the research questions I've helped answer:
- How do generative AI tools affect collaboration and productivity within organizations?
- How do search engines learn, and how would a monopoly in the market for search impact this process?
- Can we model utility markets, climate change, and demographic shifts to inform the optimal placement of resource-intensive data centers?
- Do human-annotated recommendation systems propagate latent cultural bias from their training data? Is this avoidable?
- How does the transition to hybrid work affect participants' work performance, job satisfaction, and professional network?
- Does dynamic pricing to bypass highway congestion improve travel times and reduce emissions?

Note: I think these sections can be unnecessary and subjective, but everyone seems to have one (and this one's interactive)!
