I am an empirical microeconomist working in the fields of labor and health economics and the economics of the family.
Specific research areas include social safety net programs in the United States, with a particular focus on programs for individuals with disabilities; retirement security; and the economics of marriage and fertility decisions.
I am also a Research Associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research, and a Co-Editor of the Review of the Economics of the Household.
