Assistant Scientist, Center for Demography of Health and Aging, University of Wisconsin-Madison
I am an applied microeconomics researcher at the Center for Demography of Health and Aging at the University of Wisconsin - Madison. Prior to my current position, I was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Mauritania and a Fulbright Public Policy Fellow in the Dominican Republic. I earned my degree in Economics from Fordham University with a deeply rooted interest in inequality and opportunity. Today, my research focuses on long term implications of health disparities from an aging and intergenerational perspective while examining whether public policy can mitigate observed disparities.
