I am a Ph.D. student in Economics with a major concentration in Econometrics and Quantitative Economics at Rice University. Before joining Rice, I completed a dual degree in Mathematics and Economics at the American University of Beirut.

My research interest lies at the intersection of public finance, health economics and industrial organization. In my research, I investigate the impact of subsidies and risk compensation schemes on supply-side responses within the context of health insurance markets in the U.S.
