I currently live in Washington and am in the process of translating my research interests into career pursuits. I'm primarily interested in development economics, in particular the application of randomized impact evaluations to help alleviate poverty.

I'd additionally like to help promote Citizendium's goal: to create a kinder, gentler, and better-written Wikipedia. I appreciate Citizendium's guidelines for article organization and presentation. Wikipedia articles generally do not flow well: a Wikipedia article's sections can often be arranged arbitrarily with no change in the article's readability. If Citizendium articles are supposed to flow like well-written essays, it's a challenge I look forward to.
