I spent on the unimportant wood.”

Senior Economics Research
Environmental Economics (ECON0465)
2022
In this paper, I seek to indentify an empirical link between the most significant economic factors incentivizing consumers to purchase electric vehicles. Through my methodology, I found that — on average — each additional charger corresponds with roughly 61 new EV registrations per state, while controlling for county-specific measures. The effect is stronger in recent years and in politically Democratic-leaning states, suggesting both market maturity and social attitudes shape EV adoption.
Senior Economics Research
History and Development of the World Economy (ECON0453)
2022
This Economics paper assembles a narrative argument linking the rise of large-scale textile manufacturing with an economic shift away from family farms and towards wage-based employment. This shift, in turn, induced enduring welfare benefits, including medical insurance, PTO, and an increased prevelance of women in the workforce through “Mill Girl” employment programs.
Development Proposal — Middlebury Riverfront
Developing the Built Environment (HARC0267)
2022
with Max Taxman
This presentation proposes transforming Middlebury’s underused Bakery Lane parcel into a mixed-use development with retail, office space, housing, and publicly accessible waterfront amenities along Otter Creek. Through market analysis, appraisal comparisons, and financial modeling, we demonstrate our proposal to be feasible, offering strong community benefits and investor returns while revitalizing a key gateway into downtown.
Immigration and Economic Outcomes
Theory and Measurement of Economic History (ECON0329)
Fall 2021
In this research proposal, I investigate how the mass arrival of Irish immigrants during the Great Famine affected economic outcomes in major U.S. cities, leveraging the event as a natural experiment. I argue that large migration waves can both diversify labor markets and disrupt existing occupational structures, creating measurable differences in socioeconomic advancement between immigrants and native-born workers.
The Art of Cooking
Literary Feasts (ITAL0299)
Spring 2021
In this paper, I describe my personal classification of food as an authentic art form. At its surface, food provides sensory pleasure; but as an artistic pursuit, it conveys sacrifice, devotion, cultural values, and emotional connection, and often functions as a medium for bonding, celebration, and even moral or religious identity. Ultimately, food’s artistic power lies in its ability to connect us to memory, desire, and the human experience as profoundly as any “traditional” art.
Exploring Fractals
Calculus II (MATH0122)
Fall 2020
with Stuart Lockwood and Matthew Burns
In this mathematical project, we sought to model an infinite fractal sequence using geometric series analysis and theories of convergence. Through our analysis, we provide a mathematical outline for visually modeling infinite sequences, such as Koch’s Snowflake, and justify the snowflake curve’s relationship between a finite area contained by an infinite perimeter. Additionally, we address the fact that the infinitely-divisible Candor Set contains no intervals.
[about]
I am a designer and craftsman born and raised in Concord, NH.
Through my work, I aim to communicate themes of belonging and community in rural areas, emphasize the importance of craftsmanship through the design process, and connect with the historic traditions of my New England upbringing.
My design perspective, however, is a continuous reflection of my lived experiences. As a budding architect, I am fortunate to reflect on my past projects and identify their influences in my life as I progress towards a more complete and holistic representation of my design values.
