There are many more people to thank but that is what a graduation speech is for!

For now, I am back to work to defend the dissertation, full of gratitude and with so much excitement to return to Philadelphia in this way.

I am indebted to the best group of people that supported me @uwbusiness.bsky.social and @uwmadison.bsky.social, specifically my dissertation committee: Ty Leverty, @justinsydnor.bsky.social, Joan Schmit, Anita Mukherjee, and Jeff Smith. If you know them, you know just how fortunate I am.

I am thrilled and honored to return to the same department I graduated from almost six years ago. The academic job market process is a whirlwind, and I am so grateful to everyone I encountered at each school/department I visited.

I am so excited to share a major professional update: I am headed back to Broad Street! Once I defend my PhD in May, I will join the Fox School of Business @temple.edu as a tenure-track Assistant Professor in the Department of Risk, Actuarial Science, Healthcare Management, and Legal Studies.

Honored that our OpEd from a few weeks ago got picked up nationally. See the piece for an interactive map of these costs by state.

With @jmcollinswi.bsky.social.

Regarding allegations against Christina Cross: We, a group of scientists who lead public datasets (including PSID), wish to state that her discussion of PSID isn't plagiarism.Standard language to describe public data is, in fact, good scientific practice.

Just getting back from a great few days at the @nber.bsky.social Behavioral Public Economics Bootcamp.

I learned so much over three days and am eager to keep in touch with everyone. Many thanks to Dmitry Taubinsky, Hunt Allcott, and Doug Bernheim for organizing!

Hi #EconSky! Iโ€™m a PhD Candidate at UW-Madison (b-school) in the (awesome) Risk & Insurance department. Iโ€™m not on the job market this year but figured Iโ€™d introduce myself.

My research focuses on individuals and insurance markets, with health + policy + aging interests. A social insurance nerd!
