Biography

I am an applied quantitative researcher specializing in personal finance. I work with large datasets and also collect my own data through surveys. I study topics broadly in financial decision-making, including the cultural dynamic of financial behaviors and various aspects of consumption decisions. Most of my work focuses on how people track their spending to manage their finances, as well as why and how expense-tracking affects financial well-being.
