Welcome! I am an applied microeconomist studying the impact of child care policies. My job market paper focuses on the impact of Vermont's universal preschool policy on the supply side, and how their policy design can have unexpected consequences on the aggregate quantity and quality of care. My work contributes to the literature of supply-side Early Childhood Education market and welfare implications of child care policies.
