Hello! I am a PhD student in economics at the University of British Columbia. I also hold an MA from California State University, Sacramento and a BA from Columbia.
My research fields are public economics, urban economics, and the economics of education. I’m especially interested in federalism, tax decentralization, and public good provision across space.
