I am at Carolina Regional Empirical Economics Day (CREED) 2025 today. Will be posting about the talks I attend.

Had an amazing experience at the 2025 @ashecon.bsky.social Conference presenting my early-stage work on the role of proximity to healthcare facilities in Nigeria. Thank you to the discussant and all the participants for helpful comments and discussion!

Tej Singh showed that proximity to a primary health center in Nigeria leads to ⬆️ use of facility-based care, but no shift in overall care utilization

If you’re at @ashecon.bsky.social today in Nashville here are some wonderful sessions for you to check out today The first session features @leightjessica.bsky.social !!

Tim Sass leaves behind an indelible impact on metro Atlanta #students through changed policies, and the #econofed field is better for his integrity and work. He also made a true difference in my career for which I will always be grateful. Cheers 🍻 to Tim! news.gsu.edu/2024/12/10/n...

Thanksgiving this year falls on the 28th, and 28 is a perfect number – meaning that it is equal to the sum of its proper divisors (28 = 1 + 2 + 4 + 7 + 14). So... I hope you have a truly perfect #Thanksgiving!!
