I am Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Economics at the University of Colorado, Boulder. I will be (virtually) available at the 2024 ASSA meetings in San Antonio, TX.
My primary research fields are International Trade, Industrial Organization, and Economic History. My research focuses on the consequences of concentration in markets for factor mobility, and incorporates a variety of structural, reduced-form, and computational methodologies. Specifically, I investigate the regional trade consequences of price collusion in domestic freight markets; how increasing monopsony power in the labor market can be welfare-enhancing; and how historical concentrations of freight market power shaped North America's economic development in the 20th and 21st Centuries.
