I am the Gerald L. Schlessman Assistant Professor of Economics at Colorado College, Department of Economics & Business, and a Fellow at GLO (Global Labor Organization). I received my Ph.D. in economics from the Ohio State University. 

A copy of my CV can be found here (or through google drive). My Google Scholar page can be found here. My ResearchGate profile can be found here.

Research Interests:

Macroeconomics and labor economics

My research uses heterogeneous-agent macroeconomic models to study labor markets, human capital and inequality, and surveys and microeconometric methods to value environmental goods and study education in China. Current projects measure what dark skies are worth, how flexible access to college changes lifetime welfare, how hiring discrimination shapes racial gaps in jobs and wealth, and why emerging economies' business cycles behave differently.
