Welcome! I am an Economist in the Market Design - Strategy & Market Intelligence group at the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT). I received my Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Texas at Austin.
My research interests are in Energy, Environment, Development, Health Economics, and Big Data for Causal Inference in Economics. In my job market paper, I evaluate the impact of emerging green technologies, specifically solar mini-grids, on human capital accumulation and energy access.
