Welcome! I am an Assistant Professor of Economics at Dartmouth College. I am also an Invited Researcher at the Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab (J-PAL) and a Faculty Affiliate at the Wilson Sheehan Lab for Economic Opportunities (LEO). My research focuses on homelessness, poverty, and the effects of safety net programs, with a particular interest in the health and well-being of difficult-to-study populations. My work on Medicaid and mortality has been featured in major news outlets including The New York Times, The Economist, NPR, and Time Magazine. My CV can be found here and my Google Scholar page can be found here.

I hold an MPP from the Harvard Kennedy School and a BA from the University of Michigan’s Ford School of Public Policy. I am originally from the small town of Tecumseh, Michigan, and prior to graduate school, I served as a U.S. Foreign Service Officer for five years with postings in Casablanca, Morocco and Karachi, Pakistan. When not working on research, you can find me running very long distances in the woods and traveling to remote and unique locations.
