I'm principally interested in the political economy of energy. Specifically, I hope to better understand the cultural and economic restructuring required for decarbonization and am also fascinated by the role public opinion plays in shaping energy policy. Throughout my time at Harvard, I've taken a variety of meaningful courses (GOV 1722, OEB 65, ESPP 90G & S, EPS 109, among others!), engaged in energy and climate policy research under the mentorship of Professor Dustin Tingley, interned at NGOs like Climable (a community energy developer), and am also thesis-ing. Through these experiences, I've developed my specific interests within ESPP while also strengthening my appreciation for the vastness and interdisciplinarity of ESPP! I'm excited to talk with folks about ESPP coursework, extracurricular activities, research, service, or anything in-between.
