Elisa Jácome

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Economics at Northwestern University

I primarily work on topics in labor and public economics as well as economic history. I am interested in questions related to criminal justice, immigration, mental health, and economic mobility. 

I graduated from Princeton University with a PhD in economics in 2021 and was then a postdoctoral fellow at the Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research.
