"POSITIVE, adj: Mistaken at the top of one's voice."
Ambrose Bierce
Behavioral experimental economist focusing on using economic models to identify insights to improve societal efficiency. Self-motivated worker who thrives in a dynamic problem-solving environment.
My research uses experimental methods to examine questions related to morality and honesty, labor market decisions, and environmental outcomes. My work seeks to identify behavioral insights that help decision and policy makers understand individual behavior and therefore design better solutions.

I am currently looking at transitioning to the private industry from academia to apply my survey design, econometrics, and data analysis skills.
