Welcome! I'm an applied economist, wildlife photographer, and professional pilot. For the past four years, I’ve worked as a Research Economist at the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Economic Research Service, following the completion of my PhD. In this role, I published nine peer-reviewed papers and reports on environmental, labor, and agricultural issues, with my research appearing in top academic journals. I apply a diverse set of skills—econometrics, statistics, data management, coding, historical analysis, and writing—to uncover patterns, understand relationships, and communicate findings. I've presented my research at national conferences, within the USDA, at universities, and at public outreach events. Currently, I'm exploring new job opportunities, and I am open to research, tech sector, non-profit, and academic roles.
