    I guess this makes it official. I got tenure! Thank you to everyone who has supported me through this process and throughout the tenure-track! You know who you are! @UVAEcon has been a fantastic home and has the most incredibly supportive colleagues. I feel very blessed!

    Akerlof's lemons paper is always used as an example of a paper that received a critical reception, being rejected by 3 top 5 journals before QJE accepted. Today I learnt that Nordhaus' first DICE paper was rejected by ALL Economics journals, before being accepted by Science.

    #EconTwitter Beamer + OBS: I created a beamer template that includes a webcam window. You create a frame as usual but use \begin{frameOBS} instead of \begin{frame}. The zipped file can be found here, tinyurl.com/y2yxog4y @paulgp @lukestein @EmilyNix100

    On January 1st 2024, I will be ending my association with @iza_bonn. My previous association will not be invisible, instead it will appear as strikethrough text on public materials.

    #EconTwitter Coming up with ideas is very hard. Questions aren't ideas. Ideas are a question + a plan to answer the question. One of the things I do in my grad class is to get students to generate a new idea each week, summarized in 1-2 paragraphs.

    As a grad student, transitioning from coursework to research is hard. IT IS HARD to come up with research ideas, especially when you haven’t had to do it before! It is a learned skill, and you are learning it now. Talk to faculty and let us help you. It’s our job.

    Very excited about our new paper out in @ScienceMagazine! "Disparities in PM2.5 air pollution in the United States” with @IanHHardman, @jayshimshack, & @john_voorheis! While there have been substantial reductions in PM2.5, meaningful disparities persist. science.sciencemag.org/content/369/65…

    #EconTwitter I am now officially using gather.town as my virtual office. It's working really well. No coordinating meetings. All my students have a link to my office. If they want to chat they can effectively come and "knock on my door" to see if I'm free.
