Personal statement

I am a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Economics. My primary fields of interest are health economics, labor economics and applied microeconometrics. My research focuses on estimating the effects of public policies on health and labor market outcomes. The overarching theme of my research agenda is studying health and labor market effects of policy changes that alter individuals’ income security and access to health insurance. My research has explored a variety of policies, including changes to income assistance programs, minimum wages, insurance coverage, maternal benefits, marijuana policies as well as sudden economic shocks. I am currently teaching the Honour's Year Advanced Microeconomics course, the MSc elective Health Economics Policy course, and the MBA course Economic Analysis for Strategists. Furthermore, I serve as the Deputy Director for the MSc in Applied Economics and MSc in Economics and Finance.
