Welcome!

I am an Adjunct Professor at Meinders School of Business at Oklahoma City University. I obtained my PhD in Economics from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln  and a M.A. in Economics from the University of Calgary. From 2024 to 2025, I was a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Department of Public Health at Baylor University. 

My research areas include Labor Economics and Applied Microeconomics, with a specific focus on topics related to Education, family, health, and employment. I am particularly interested in understanding the factors that influence individuals' health, educational, and labor market outcomes. Additionally, I have a keen enthusiasm for evaluating the impact of public policies in this context.
