Kaitlyn M. Sims

Welcome!

I am an Assistant Professor of Microeconomics for Public Policy at the Josef Korbel School of International Studies at the University of Denver. I received my PhD in Agricultural and Applied Economics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in spring 2022.

My research is at the intersection of  public health, the economics of violence, and environmental health hazards. Broadly, I am interested in the ways that individuals cope with uncertainty and social turbulence, including housing insecurity, domestic violence, and poverty.  My research includes data in all scales, including original data collection, "big" data and spatial analysis, program evaluation, and qualitative interviews.
