Welcome! I’m an Assistant Professor of Cooperative Extension in the Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics at UC Berkeley. UC extension economists conduct research and outreach on economic and policy issues relevant to California’s agriculture and natural resources. We work with government agencies, environmental groups, the agricultural sector, and other stakeholders to better connect Californians with the University’s research.

My research and extension program addresses economic questions at the intersection of agriculture and the environment. Much of my work evaluates the potential for and effectiveness of different policies for managing water resources. Recent research projects include estimating the responsiveness of agricultural pumpers to changes in the price of groundwater and modeling the magnitude and distribution of the potential economic gains from groundwater trade.
