Welcome! I am Reina Kawai Eskimez, an Economist at the World Bank

I received my Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Washington, Seattle, in 2023, and my B.S. with a double major in Economics and Mathematics from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities.

I am an applied macroeconomist with interests primarily in the fields of applied macroeconomics, applied econometrics, forecasting, and growth. My passion is to develop policy implications through a theory-based empirical approach.
