I have published on occupational licensing and service quality, the economics of crime, and health care regulation. I am also a Research Affiliate at the Knee Center for the Study of Occupational Regulation at West Virginia University and serve as the president of the Society for Economics Representation and Networking.

I earned my Doctorate in Economics and Masters in Economics from George Mason University and my Bachelor of Science in Economics from Saint Mary’s College of California. I previously worked as a journalist covering political news out of Pennsylvania.

I am a California native and enjoy punk rock, competitive highland dancing, and reading science fiction.
