I hold a PhD from the Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics at the University of California, Davis. Starting Fall 2025, I will join the Department of Agricultural Economics at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln as the Assistant Professor of Agricultural Banking and Finance.
My research examines the intersection of agricultural markets, agricultural finance, and global trade, with a focus on how policies and market shocks influence commodity market integration, risk management, and agricultural land use. I analyze the economic mechanisms behind the changes and provide insights into their broader impact on the agricultural sector, agricultural finance, and international trade.
