## Experience

  I'm interested in agricultural markets and policy, cooperative business organizations, and the role of agriculture in economic development. My research uses contract and industrial organization theories to measure market performance, and to evaluate the distributional implications of policy and market structure. I teach on economics and strategy in agricultural markets, and lead a center that provides education and applied research support to cooperative businesses.
