My primary research areas are health economics, labor economics, and the economics of education. I am particularly interested in racial disparities in health and labor market outcomes, intergenerational mobility, and how early childhood experiences contribute to subsequent socioeconomic well being.
A CV and a summary of teaching experience are posted above, and below are copies of my articles and working papers.
