About Me

Outside of economics, I also enjoy, well, outside things! I love hiking, camping, rock climbing and mountain biking. (See left - that's me on "Fear of Flying" at Enchanted Rock State Park in Central Texas)

I'm originally from New Orleans, but I consider myself nearly a Texan because I lived there for 15 years.

I have 2 dogs! My older dog, Graceland, is just about the sweetest dog you'll ever meet. She's also the tiniest labradoodle around and named for Memphis, where I attended college. My younger pup is a Shih-tzu mix named Coco. She's not the brightest dog, but she loves everyone!
