Bio

I am a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Global Policy Lab at Stanford University. I earned a PhD in Agricultural & Resource Economics with a designated emphasis in Development Engineering from University of California, Berkeley where I was an Innovations at the Nexus of Food, Energy, and Water Systems Fellow. In Fall 2025 I will join the faculty of the Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison as Assistant Professor of Sustainable Land Systems.

I study questions related to how agricultural systems around the world interact with the environment, often using remote sensing and machine learning tools which I sometimes help develop. My current projects include quantifying the environmental benefits of conservation agriculture adoption in Mexico, re-examining the effects of China's Household Responsibility System using historical satellite imagery, and exploring how climate change interacts with the market for agricultural land in the United States.
