Welcome

I am an agricultural economist working predominantly on applied research at the interface between agricultural production, public policy and the environment. The majority of my research is motivated by science-based decision making and is often interdisciplinary in nature.  I have a strong interest in the economics of conservation programs and practices, climate change, ecosystem services, information economics, choice modeling and economic management of spatial-dynamic processes in the environment.

I am currently an Associate Professor in the Applied Economics and Policy area of the Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management at Cornell University with an Extension appointment in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences.
