I am a health services researcher and Ph.D. candidate at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, where I specialize in using econometric techniques to evaluate policy outcomes from large-scale healthcare datasets. My research applies causal inference methods—including difference-in-differences, instrumental variables, and propensity scores—to explore healthcare utilization patterns, expenditures, and the effects of health interventions. Recently, my work has focused on healthcare delivery and economic impacts associated with Long COVID and early childhood development programs, translating complex statistical analyses into actionable insights for policy and practice. My educational background includes an MPH in Global Health Systems, Management, and Policy from the University of Colorado and a BA in Anthropology from Luther College.
