About
I’m a PhD Candidate in Economics at the University of Oregon. My research focuses on how health policy, public insurance, and treatment markets affect access to care for substance use disorder and related behavioral health needs.
A lot of my work sits at the intersection of health economics, public economics, and empirical policy evaluation. I am especially interested in places where administrative systems, provider markets, and public programs shape whether care is practically reachable.
