I am an Assistant Professor of Economics in the Department of Finance and Economics at Texas State University. Before joining Texas State, I was a Postdoctoral Fellow in health economics at Johns Hopkins University. My research lies at the intersection of health economics, environmental economics, and public health.
My research examines how policies, economic shocks, and environmental conditions affect individual behavior and outcomes in health and labor markets. Using causal inference methods, large-scale data, and economic modeling, I study their effects on health care access, utilization, and outcomes, as well as on physician labor supply decisions. My teaching interests center on applied microeconomics and applied econometrics.
I received my Ph.D. and M.A. in Economics from the University at Albany, State University of New York in 2025 and 2022, respectively.
