I am a sixth-year economics Ph.D. candidate at the University of California, Santa Barbara on the 2024-25 academic job market. I am a macroeconomist who studies spatial heterogeneity in the effects of climate change. My work focuses on how the effects climate change and energy policy will depend on variation in intrinsic local characteristics as well as the composition of the population that lives there. I am most interested in modeling how migration will serve as a channel for adaptation to climate, and how the dynamics will change based on the relative size of effects on local incomes and barriers to adjustment. Prior to my time as a graduate student, I worked as a research economist for two years at the Council of Economic Advisers in Washington, D.C. on energy and trade. I hold a B.A. from Brandeis University in Economics and Physics.

Primary Research Topics: Climate macroeconomics, energy and natural resources, environmental economics, discrete choice models
