Hi! I am a PhD candidate in the Sustainable Development program at Columbia University’s School of International & Public Affairs and Earth Institute. In my work, I combine tools from economics and Earth science to answer questions related to our management of the global commons.

Previously, I earned a BA in Political Economy and a Master of Public Policy at UC Berkeley, where I am still a member of the Global Policy Lab. I also worked at Habitat for Humanity, USAID, and NextGen Policy on housing, global development, and energy policy.

During AY22/23 of my PhD, I was on leave at the White House Council of Economic Advisers, where I focused on environmental policy.

In August 2024, I will join Stanford’s Center on Food Security and the Environment as a postdoc. In 2025, I will join UVA’s Batten School of Leadership and Public Policy as an assistant professor.
