Miranda Lambert
PhD Candidate, Department of Economics, Texas A&M University
Miranda Lambert utilizes field and lab experiments along with other causal inference methods to study topics encompassed in Development and Gender economics. Her current research looks at the individual and community implications of war as well as the gender differences in promotion/evaluations. Her job market paper examines the impacts of childhood trauma on adulthood household violence in Uganda, and can be found here. Her lab experiments explore how differential environments (competitive vs cooperative) impact gender discrimination in the workplace. More specifics on all of my work can be found on her CV.
She previously completed a B.S. in Economics (Texas A&M University '13), M.S in International and Development Economics (University of San Francisco '17), and was a Project Manager for Professor Catherine Wolfram (Energy institute at Haas-UC Berkley).
