I am an assistant professor at the University of San Diego School of Law. I study tax law and related questions of distributive justice.

 

One focus of my research is international tax law and policy. This work builds on my experience as an attorney at the U.S. Department of Treasury, where I worked on regulations that implement the U.S. corporate alternative minimum tax.

 

A second strand of my research explores more general questions about how resources should be distributed. For example, one of my current projects analyzes how to measure social welfare when people move between societies.

​

My work has been published or is forthcoming in the University of Chicago Law Review; NYU Law Review; Tax Law Review; Tax Notes; and Philosophy & Public Affairs.

​

Before joining USD, I was a Furman Fellow at NYU, clerked for Judge Jed S. Rakoff in the Southern District of New York, and practiced as a tax associate with Covington & Burling in Washington, D.C.

​

I have a Ph.D. from Princeton; a J.D. from NYU, where I was a Furman Scholar; a B.Phil. from Oxford; and an A.B. (summa cum laude) from Harvard.
