Hello! 

I am an Assistant Professor of Economics at Clarkson University. 

I hold a PhD from the Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management at Cornell University. My research interests lie at the intersection of environment and resource economics and development economics. I focus primarily on questions relating to water, from understanding the economic impacts of too little or too much water, to exploring interventions around health and water quality.

I earned a Bachelors of Arts in Economics and French & Francophone Studies from Lawrence University in Appleton, Wisconsin. I studied abroad in Dakar, Senegal with African Consultants International and participated in cross country, indoor, and outdoor track.
