Welcome! I am an economist, and I study environmental and resource problems. My research focuses on understanding the distributional effects of regulations, property rights and institutions, as well as the political economy of environmental and natural resource policy. Applications include ambient air pollution, rights-based management of marine fisheries, and climate change.
I am an Associate Professor at University of Wisconsin - Madison, where I've been a faculty member since 2010. I am also a faculty affiliate ("Professor II") at University of Bergen (Centre for Climate and Energy Transformation (CET)), a Fellow at CESifo (Munich), and a Co-Editor of Land Economics.
My primary appointment is in Ag & Applied Economics (AAE), but I am also affiliated with several groups at Wisconsin:
I have consulted with a variety of organizations, including development banks, private companies and environmental NGOs.
