Courses

Econometerics (ECON 140A-B)

These courses covered advance training in linear regression models of observational data. I learned to interpret models with interactions, account for endogeneity, and correctly estimate standard error for cluster and time series data.

Data Wrangling for Economics (ECON 149)

Data Wrangling focused on techniques for cleaning, transforming, and organizing large datasets for economic analyses using R and RStudio. I was able to enhance my abilities to communicate findings clearly using data visualization techniques.

Financial Management (ECON 134A)

Financial Management examined how individuals and firms maximize profits while minimizing risk using the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM). I applied discounting of certain future cash flows, explored the principles of evaluation of investment projects, and conducted analyses of a firm’s debt and dividend policies and how taxes and inflation effect these policies.

Financial Management and Environmental Accounting (ESM 279)

Financial Management and Environmental Accounting examined what motivates companies to be environmentally friendly through the study of how a firm’s market value is determined and how investor manage risk. I was able to investigate how Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) investing is growing as the construction of ESG investment opportunities evolves with emerging environmental and social regulations.
