I'm a fifth-year PhD candidate in the Economics department interested in research ideas from public and environmental fields. I am currently on the job market in the 2025-2026 academic year. I also work as a research assistant for the National Wildlife Research Center as part of the US Department of Agriculture. My current research deals with government funding for homeless assistance services, the effect of tenant protection policies on low-income housing outcomes, and creating methods to determine the monetary value of ecosystem services.
