Academic Direction

Economics, data, policy, and applied systems.

My work sits between economics, data, policy, and applied systems. I am interested in how institutions and industries make decisions, allocate resources, and organize people, information, and infrastructure.

This portfolio keeps the emphasis on academic writing, careful analysis, operational thinking, and the early development of practical tools.
