I joined Berkeley after a faculty position at UC Santa Barbara's Bren School of Environmental Science and Management and a postdoc at University of Chicago. I completed my PhD in Agricultural and Resource Economics at UC Berkeley, where I was an EPA STAR Fellow and a Doctoral Fellow in the Global Policy Lab. I have masters degrees from the University of Oxford.

I am an environmental and resource economist, using large geospatial datasets to answer questions at the intersection of environmental change and economic development. I study climate, water, air pollution, and remote sensing.
