I'm excited to share my JMP "The Optimal Design of Climate Agreements" where I study carbon taxation and trade tariffs in the presence of free-riding incentives and inequality, which is related to current discussions on trade policies and climate action #EconTwitter #COP29 🧵1/10

How should we think about estimation uncertainty of heterogeneous responses when the sample is a large fraction of the population? @sancibrian_v explores this in repeated measurement problems, such as when documenting the extent of firm misallocation https://t.co/y4k2hPrdVn

I am excited to be on the job market this year! Here is a quick thread on my JMP 👇

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at Microsoft Research. In August 2026, I will begin as an Assistant Professor in Economics at The Ohio State University. I am a labor economist. I study how non-wage...
Carolyn Tsao's job market paper investigates whether public school teachers earn rents. Her novel approach to quantifying rents explicitly takes both pay and the value of non-wage amenities into account. https://t.co/adqXZUrqk7

Jeanne is expanding the frontiers of development economics. We understand a lot more about the impediments for road infrastructure projects in the development world because of her insightful paper. Another great candidate this season from UChicago.
@camillaschneier Jeanne Sorin (@jenn_slg) studies transportation and environmental challenges in developing cities. In her JMP, she examines how land acquisition costs prevent the implementation of high benefit road improvement projects in Kampala, Uganda. Read more at https://t.co/AM2X8OX5fu

Jordan’s paper is impressive. It shows us the importance of urban cost for development using evidence for more than 10000 cities in the world. A must read. Jordan should be in your interview list this season.
@alexpetnet @tanyarajan .@jordanr_k studies spatial & trade economics. His JMP shows how barriers to urban expansion and high commuting costs inhibit development. Reducing urban costs would boost welfare by 66% in low-income nations and help nations adapt to climate change. https://t.co/e3WLDyTLWj

Tom has a wonderful paper. He solves, for the first time, the optimal congestion pricing problem in general equilibrium. A paper of theoretical and practical importance. Every school should compete to hire him.
@SamuelHigbee @ShanonHMHsu @joshuadhigbee Thomas Hierons (@tom_hierons) works in urban and spatial economics, international trade, and econometrics. In his job market paper, he studies the welfare gains from optimal congestion pricing with an application to New York City. Learn more at https://t.co/H5MxeBfTWx.

Thomas’ paper tells us how to design the best climate club. One of the best papers on climate change I have scene recently. Anyone interested to hire in macro/environmental should look at his impressive portfolio.
Thomas Bourany @TBourany works at the intersection of Macroeconomics, Environmental Economics, and International Trade. In his JMP, he shows how to design optimal climate agreements to implement carbon policy in the presence of free-riding and inequality. https://t.co/e77SvC7AiZ
