Short Bio

I am a third-year PhD student in the Department of Agricultural Economics & Rural Sociology at Auburn University, under the supervision of Prof. Joshua Duke. I study how people and firms respond to environmental and agricultural policies. I studied how the CRP program affects agribusiness behavior and how people respond to land-value taxation under spatial interdependencies. I am currently working on how social affinity attributes affect people's willingness to pay for food products. I am also currently working on how farmers’ input-use behavior responds to social comparisons.
