I am a PhD candidate in Economics at University of Kentucky. My research is focused on the intersection of public, health, and labor economics to evaluate the impacts of the social safety net and public policies. My current research focuses on the impacts of an expansion to the modes of redemption for SNAP benefits on low-income households.

I am on the 2023-24 job market.

Prior to my doctoral studies, I received my Master's of Science in Economics from the Georgia Institute of Technology in 2018, and a B.S. in Economics from the University of Alabama at Birmingham (summa cum laude) in 2016.
