About me:
I am a Ph.D. student at Cornell University in the Department of Economics, and a pre-doctoral fellow at the National Bureau of Economic Research. My primary fields of interest are behavioral economics and applied microeconomics. My research is currently centered on reference-dependent behavior; specifically, developing empirical techniques to inform selection among models of reference point formation and testing these models in large-scale microeconomic data. Other ongoing research assesses the use of happiness or subjective well-being data in economic settings.
