Welcome to My Web Page

I am a fourth-year Ph.D. student at Cornell University in the field of economics working under the direction of professors in the Departments of Economics and Policy Analysis and Management. My fields of interest are health economics and empirical industrial organization.

Currently I am a Graduate Research Assistant for Prof. Don Kenkel working on projects concerning retrospectively reported smoking information as well as education effects in the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY). Further, I am working with Profs. Profs. Sean Nicholson and Claudio Lucarelli to investigate physician learning and treatment decisions using the National Cancer Institute's SEER-Medicare linked data.
