Welcome! I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Economics at Central Washington University (CWU).

I am an applied microeconomist working in the fields of labor and public economics.  Broadly, my research interests are on the effects of labor market regulations on immigrants and the effects of public policy on children and families. 

Before joining the faculty at CWU, I earned my Ph.D. in economics from Kansas State University and my B.S. in Economics from the University of West Indies, Mona.
