I utilize field and lab experiments along with applied microeconomic methods to study topics encompassed in Development and Labor economics. My current research uses a gender and development lens to look at the individual and community implications of war as well as the gender differences in promotion/evaluations. My solo-authored work examines the impacts of childhood trauma on adulthood household violence in Uganda and gender differences in the job market for field enumerators in the global south. My current lab experiments explore how differential environments (competitive vs cooperative and virtual vs in-person) impact gender discrimination in the workplace. More specifics on all of my work can be found on my CV.
I previously completed a B.S. in Economics (Texas A&M University '13), M.S in International and Development Economics (University of San Francisco '17), and was a Project Manager for Professor Catherine Wolfram (Energy institute at Haas-UC Berkley).
My favorite things in life include doing fieldwork, attaining mediocre scores in weekly pub trivia, and my cats.
