I am a Ph.D. candidate at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I expect to be graduating in May of 2010.

My fields of specialization are Labor Economics, Health Economics, and Applied Econometrics. I also have interest in Population Economics and Applied Microeconomics.

My current research focuses on the recent fertility decline in Russia. I investigate timing and interdependence of the mother’s educational, labor, and marital choices and their impact on contemporaneous and future fertility outcomes in the context of socio-economic environment.

I have also researched the impact of the Social Security earnings test on the earnings distribution and work hours of working beneficiaries.
