Works in Progress

I am currently developing several research papers as part of my dissertation and related projects. These works are ongoing and represent different stages of the research process — from data collection and model design to drafting and presentation.

• Conservation and Externalities: The Effect of Conservation Easements on Neighboring Residential Parcels
  • Examines the spillover effects of conservation easements on neighboring property values and municipal tax bases in Hennepin County, MN.
  • First full draft completed; currently under revision.
• Rent Control and Housing Supply: Evidence from a Staggered Difference-in-Differences Approach
  • Investigates the impact of rent control adoption on permitting and housing supply across U.S. cities.
  • Preliminary models completed; refining analysis and drafting.
• Measuring Rent Control Intensity with Natural Language Processing and Generative Models
  • Uses municipal codes and NLP/AI techniques to create new indices of rent control restrictiveness across U.S. cities.
  • Data collection and measurement framework in progress.
• Transportation Changes Land Use: How the St. Croix Bridge Shaped Accessibility, Housing Values, and Travel Behavior
  • Explores how infrastructure expansion reshapes accessibility, land use, and housing markets.
  • Developed with Eric Lind at the Accessibility Observatory using in-house data. Submitted for presentation; preparing for public release.

As I begin the publishing and public sharing phase of my research you’ll be able to find the code to my projects on my github.
