RESEARCH OVERVIEW
I am an applied microeconomist with a focus on environmental, food, and energy issues. My research mainly seeks to answer how people value environmental (dis)amenities and respond to incentives created by policy interventions. I exploit large retail scanner, survey, housing, and cellphone data and incorporate modern econometric methods, empirical IO approaches, and machine learning techniques to study important questions in this domain. My work also contributes to the literature in consumer behavior on organic and vice (virtue) food, and electric vehicle adoption.
