Jess Rudder

I am a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Development Innovation Lab at the University of Chicago.  I have a PhD in Agricultural and Resource Economics from the University of California Davis. My research interests are development economics, industrial organization, agriculture, and applied econometrics. 

In Fall 2025, I'll join the Department of Applied Economics at Oregon State University as Assistant Professor of Sustainable Development.
