I am on the 2026–2027 academic job market.

I am a Ph.D. candidate in Resource Economics at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. 

My research is in applied economics, with a focus on energy and environmental economics. Using applied econometrics and machine learning, I study how prices and policies shape energy use, energy markets, and the environment.
