I have joined the Department of Economics at the University of Warwick as an Assistant Professor in August 2020. Please check out my new website.

I am an environmental economist researching urban policy issues, such as lead poisoning. My secondary field is health economics.

Conserving resources and reducing pollution are among the most pressing challenges facing society.
Designing programs to achieve these goals requires an understanding of 1) pollution damages and 2) individuals' and firms' behavior.
How do people value reductions in their exposure risk to harmful pollutants?
What drives compliance with environmental regulations?
I investigate these questions using large administrative datasets and experimental and quasi-experimental methods.
