About me:

Currently, I am an associate professor in the Department of Economics at Mount Holyoke College. My research focuses on natural resource management and conservation. To carry out this work, I combine theory and empirical techniques from economics, ecology, and natural history. I teach courses in the economics department on environmental and natural resource economics and econometrics. I also have taught a freshman seminar on bird migration and bird conservation.
