Welcome to my site! I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Economics at Tulane University.

​

My current research lies at the intersection of political economy, urban economics, and public economics. I use economic theory and empirical methods, including economic history, to explore these areas.

 

Currently, I am interested in the interplay between culture and institutions in U.S. economic history, with an emphasis on racial violence and exclusion.

​

My work has been published in academic journals such as the Quarterly Journal of Economics, the Journal of Public Economics, and the Economic Journal.
