Mark M. Drozd

Hi! My name is Mark Drozd, and I am the Postdocotoral Fellow in the Department of Economics at Macalester College. I earned my Ph.D. in Economics at Johns Hopkins University in 2026. Prior to joining Johns Hopkins, I received a B.S. in Mathematics (Financial Track) and a B.S. in Economics (with Honors) from The Ohio State University (Go Bucks!) in 2020.

In my Job Market Paper, I estimate a dynamic discrete choice model of occupation and education decisions that incorporates mental health dynamics. The results demonstrate that considering educational attainment is essential when assessing the effects of mental health policies.
