I am currently pursuing a M.S. in Natural Resource Economics at Colorado State University, focusing on the intersection of renewable energy, sustainable water management, and economic development. With a thesis involving a cost-benefit analysis and demand estimation of on solar dried fruit in Malawi, I have gained a fond appreciation for the involvement that comes with international fieldwork. I am passionate about leveraging economic principles to foster sustainable development, particularly in optimizing resource use and promoting environmental integrity. My career goal is to contribute to data-driven decision-making for both public and private sectors, advocating for responsible solutions that address global challenges.
