About

My research background is in Industrial Organization, Environmental & Public Economics, and Behavioral Economics though I've also produced research in Operations Research and Optimal Control. I use applied theory to inform microeconometric, experimental and machine learning empirical techniques. I graduated from UC San Diego with a PhD in Economics and UC Berkeley with a BA in Economics. Recently I’ve been doing research on cloud computing and two-sided markets characterized by externalities.
