Welcome to my homepage!

I am an Assistant Professor of Agricultural Economics in the Department of Agricultural Sciences and the Sandhill Research and Education Center at Clemson University. My research program focuses on the sustainability of food systems, examining how economic agents make decisions related to agricultural sustainability across the food system—from production to consumption. Specifically, I investigate (1) how behavioral economics can inform market opportunities for sustainably produced and healthy foods, and (2) which policies and extension strategies can effectively encourage agricultural producers to adopt sustainable production practice.

In addition to research, I am actively engaged in outreach efforts. I develop economic decision-support tools and evaluate the economic feasibility of sustainable agricultural innovations. Through this work, I aim to generate actionable insights that enhance both the sustainability and profitability of food production systems.
