Welcome to my web page. I work as a Principal Research Economist at the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas. My academic research looks at topics related to oil markets, monetary policy and the macroeconomy. You can click on Research to find links and more information on my scholarly work.

My policy work at the Bank has primarily focused on oil and gas markets, although recently I have done work on topics related to the energy transition, particularly battery technology. I am also heavily involved with the Dallas Fed Energy Survey as its project manager. Please click on Energy Market Analysis for links and more details on some of this work.
