I am an Associate Professor in the School of Healthcare Business and Technology and Director of Data Science at the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences, and an Instructor in the Department of Economics at Harvard University.
My research examines how technology affects productivity, innovation, organizational performance, and outcomes, particularly in healthcare and the life sciences. My doctoral research studied telemedicine, software innovation in medical devices, and technology-enabled remote work. More broadly, I am interested in how new technologies diffuse through complex institutions and regulated markets, and how their effects appear in organizational structure, commercialization, decision-making, and productivity.
I teach The Economics of Digitization at Harvard College, where I received a Derek C. Bok Award for Teaching Excellence. I previously taught Health Economics to graduate students at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and have taught continuously at Harvard since 2016.
In my applied work, I provide economic analysis and advisory support on complex healthcare and life sciences matters. This work applies econometrics, causal inference, and large-scale healthcare data to questions involving causation, reimbursement, competition, damages, and market dynamics. My experience spans pharmaceutical and medical device matters, False Claims Act enforcement, payor-provider reimbursement disputes, and antitrust.
Previously, I was Director of Data and Analytics for Health Affairs at Boston Children’s Hospital, where I led enterprise analytics across 11 departments and co-chaired the Data Governance Council. Before that, I was an economist at Analysis Group, where my work included causal inference in litigation, health economics and outcomes research, and real-world evidence generation for pharmaceutical clients.
I hold a Doctorate from Harvard Business School and an AB in Economics with High Honors from Dartmouth College. My research affiliations have included the National Bureau of Economic Research under both Amitabh Chandra and Heidi Williams, and the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research at Northwell Health.
