Taught (online) the second course in the undergraduate econometric theory sequence. This course explores specification and estimation of common econometric models. I covered topics including time series data, pooling of time series with cross-sectional data, instrumental variables, simultaneous equation models, binary dependent variables, and censored and truncated models. I also incorporated programming applications of these methods in Stata and R.

Led daily afternoon discussion lectures and provided office hours for incoming graduate students during Math Camp, aimed at reviewing and introducing topics in probability and statistics. I additionally taught the lecture on combinatorics.
Led weekly discussion lectures, held office hours, and graded for the second course in the first year graduate econometrics sequence. This course covered time series topics, panel data models, and nonlinear models and estimation methods (generalized method of moments, maximum likelihood).
Led weekly discussion lectures, held office hours, and graded for the first course in the first year graduate econometrics sequence. This course covered ordinary least squares, generalized least squares, instrumental variable estimation, finite and large sample analysis, and testing principles with a focus on rigorous theory.
Held office hours and graded for an undergraduate course covering topics in microeconomic theory. This course covered topics including utility maximization, income and substitution effects, stages of production, profit maximization, types of competition, wages and labor supply, Pareto optimality, and public goods.
Led weekly discussion lectures, held office hours, graded, and helped implement a semester-long project in an undergraduate course that was part of a series designed to introduce students to economics via interesting and engaging questions. This course focused on the substantial increase in tuition and fees at higher education institutions in the US and used tools from economics to explore explanations for that increase and other related phenomena.
