“Every student who's written to
congratulate me on this award, I've
had to say to them, ‘Please know that
you were the one to put the hours in at
the bench. I hardly ever run an
experiment. It was your work ethic,
and your creative ideas.’
They really have redirected our work
many, many, many times. Left up to
me, we wouldn't be where we are
today.”

“I was mostly struck by the wide
variety of issues that economists are
studying, everything from recessions
and financial issues to crime,
development, poverty, sports and
health. It just made a lot of sense to
me, and it really clicked that
(economics) is a powerful set of tools
for understanding how the world
works.”

“I think there are also a lot of careers in theatre
that college students maybe don’t have on
their radar. Everybody wants to be a performer
starting out, but ultimately there are hundreds
of other careers in and around the arts that
maybe (don’t involve) you on stage that can be
wildly rewarding.”

environment that promotes
high-quality scholarship. I am
