I am a Ph.D. candidate in Economics at the University of Nevada, Reno, with research interests in applied microeconomics, labor economics, insurance markets, and public policy.

My research uses applied econometric methods to study how households, workers, and firms respond to economic and policy changes. My current work examines health insurance responses to housing-cost shocks, casino gaming revenue and public finance, and labor-market effects in California’s wine industry. I expect to complete my Ph.D. in 2027.
