I am an associate professor at the Department of Agricultural, Environmental, and Development Economics. Prior to OSU, I was a postdoc at The Nature Conservancy. 

My work is at the intersection of environment and development economics. I specialize in quantifying the causal impacts of interventions in terms of environmental (e.g. deforestation) and socio-economic outcomes (poverty, health, adoption of practices) and monetizing the value of benefits people get from the natural environment (e.g., disease mitigation, water purification, fuelwood collection).
