About

My research studies behavioral economics with a focus on decision-making under uncertainty. I explore how monetary, cognitive, and physiological costs affect judgments about ourselves and others when the truth is not necessarily known. My work solely utilizes online experiments using representative sampling from either MTurk or Prolific. My work can broadly apply to labor markets with a more granular emphasis on industrial organization, organizational behavior, and search environments.

In my free time, you will find me playing video games, engaging in web development, advocating for open science, and looking for creative ways to engage in more liberal forms of education.
