Welcome to my website. I am a newly minted Economics PhD graduate. My main areas of interest are growth and development, applied microeconomics, inequality of opportunity, labor market discrimination and education inequality. I received my MA and PhD from the Department of Economics at Howard University in Washington, DC. Before starting the PhD, I received my master’s in Finance and Banking from the Institute of Banking studies in Amman, Jordan. Currently, I'm an Adjunct Professor at Northeastern University, Arlington VA.
