👏 Hello!

I am an agricultural and applied economist specializing in demand and price analysis, consumer behavior, and agricultural and food policy. My research applies econometric and quantitative methods to examine consumer decision-making, food markets, and policy impacts. I am on the academic job market and seeking academic and research positions.
