I'm an environmental economist studying the design of environmental regulations, particularly the role for market-based schemes in climate change and natural resources like fisheries and forests. I have a deep love of Mather from my time on HoCo as an undergrad and really look forward to reconnecting about all things economics, environment, Mather history, or anything else!
