My research focuses on behavioral responses to programs, policies, environmental shocks, and technology adoption in the developing world and generally falls within the subfields of development economics, environmental economics, and/or applied microeconomics.
I completed my Ph.D. in Applied Economics and Management from Cornell University in 2016. Prior to my Ph.D., I worked for seven years as a development practitioner in Ethiopia and Honduras in various senior-level NGO management positions. Before that, I received a Master’s of Public Administration in International Development from the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University in 2004.
