Job market update: I am thrilled to share that I’ll be doing a postdoc at @DukeU Nicholas School before joining @McMasterEcon as an Assistant Professor!

Incredibly grateful to those who have helped me along the way, and so excited for these next steps.

Excited to see my JMP cited in the Economist—it highlights the tradeoffs workers could face with a higher minimum wage and suggests more worker protections like Fair Workweek laws could be important alongside minimum wage increases

I’m on the #EconJobMarket! I study labor, extreme weather adaptation, and inequality.

My JMP addresses an under-studied aspect of the labor market: schedule unpredictability among hourly workers in the service sector.
