Her research focuses on real-world policy issues, particularly in labor markets, public policy, and urban economic dynamics. Key areas include the economic impacts of prisons and prison closures, energy pricing and its effect on mortality, and fiscal stimulus mechanisms. Her work combines rigorous econometric methods with policy-relevant questions, often using quasi-experimental designs to assess causal impacts.
The recent publications highlight a consistent theme of evaluating the socioeconomic effects of government interventions. These include prison policy, energy pricing, and tax changes, with publications in high-impact journals such as The Review of Economics and Statistics and The Economic Journal. The research demonstrates strong external engagement, with multiple articles picked up by news outlets, referenced in policy sources, and widely shared on social media.
