Background Information

I am an environmental economist, who graduated from Iowa State University in 2016. I learned about TBL at Iowa State, where I participated in a workshop about it. I am an Assistant Professor at Manhattan College. I use TBL in all of the courses I teach: Principles of Microeconomics, Principles of Macroeconomics, and Environmental Economics.
My research interests include studying the adoption of conservation practices and climate adaptation practices among farmers in Iowa and in Argentina. I also study environmental attitudes, knowledge, and behavior among college students. My interests also include behavioral and development economics, with a focus on risk aversion, Prospect Theory, and cooperation.
