My research applies insights and methods from industrial organization and public economics to the study of environmental, energy, and climate policy. In my job market paper, I study the effect of consumer subsidies on market structure in California’s residential solar industry.

Prior to my PhD, I worked for the US Environmental Protection Agency, White House Council on Environmental Quality, and Booz Allen Hamilton. I graduated from Harvard College with a BA in Environmental Science and Public Policy and a Secondary in Economics.

I will be on the job market during AY 2023-2024.
