I am currently a doctoral candidate at the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS). My primary research interests include international finance, financial regulation, and banking, and my doctoral thesis, titled “Essays on Covid and Capital,” investigated Covid-19’s impact on international banking and and capital markets.

I am on the 2024-2025 job market.

I can be reached at semmi@jhu.edu, and my CV is available upon request.

Profiles: American Economic Association (AEA), Google Scholar, LinkedIn, and ORCID.

In my free time I’m a (very) amateur photographer whose work can be found here.
