I am currently a Visiting Assistant Professor of Economics at Berea College and will join Grinnell College as an Assistant Professor in Fall 2026. My research primarily focuses on modeling questions related to behavioral and information economics. In doing so, I develop systematic approaches to capturing the roles of cognitive biases and information frictions in decision-making. My current areas of interest are in motivated reasoning, information acquisition, and treatment allocation
