I am a current PhD candidate at the University of Kentucky's Gatton College of Business and Economics. I am on the job market seeking a position starting in August 2027.

My research interests sit at the intersection of labor economics and economics education. My work focuses on both the economics of education and economics education, looking at the job market of economics faculty as well as the impact of pedagogical interventions on students. 

My job market paper, "Demographic Determinants of Earnings and Tenure in Economics: Do Institutional Characteristics Matter?" uses the Survey of Doctorate Recipients merged with the Integrated Postsecondary Data System (IPEDS) and US News and World Report rankings data to evaluate the role of institutional characteristics on sex-based earnings and tenure differentials of economics faculty at 4-year universities in the United States.

Fields: Labor Economics, Economics of Education, Economics Education

Current Research: "Demographic Determinants of Earnings and Tenure in Economics: Do Institutional Characteristics Matter?" and "Bridging Theory and Practice: Evaluating the Impact of The Econ Games on Student Skill Development" (with Dr. Darshak Patel and Dr. Abdullah Al-Bahrani)
