RESEARCH INTERESTS
In my academic and professional research I have emphasized the social, historical, and policy implications of economic problems. My past research has covered labor market inequalities by race and ethnicity, competition in the market for platform technology, and policy reports focused on the market for child care services in Utah. Through my role as the Co-director of the Economic Evaluation Unit, I produce economic research for state and federal agencies to inform evidence-based policy.
