About Me

I am a Ph.D. candidate in Economics at the University of Rochester, advised by Prof. William Thomson.

Research Interest: 

Microeconomic Theory, Market Design, Fair Division, Platform Economics

My current line of research investigates fair allocation in the sharing economy: how digital platforms should divide revenues or costs among participants in a way that is both principled and practical.

I model a variety of real-world problems, including 

• sharing revenues among contributors in crowdfunding (e.g., Kickstarter), 

• dividing costs among passengers in ride-sharing (e.g., UberX Share), and 

• distributing subscription fees among artists on music streaming platforms (e.g., Spotify). 

Using the axiomatic approach, I design and analyze allocation rules that satisfy desirable properties such as order preservation, monotonicity, consistency, reallocation invariance, and so on.
