About
My research revolves around the theme of labour markets and earnings inequality in Canada, the United States, and other countries. I study how the evolution of income inequality compares between immigrants and Canadian-born workers and the factors behind these differences. I have also compared the economic returns to education among immigrants depending on the country where they acquired their highest educational degree.
