I am a Scholar in Residence Post Doctoral Fellow at the Stephenson Institute for Classical Liberalism at Wabash College beginning in 2024. I earned my Ph.D. in Economics at George Mason University, and have published academic research in journals including World Development Perspectives, Public Choice, and Journal of Institutional Economics. I earned my Master's in Economics from George Mason in 2019 and my Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration from the University of Mississippi in 2014.
