About me:

I am researcher and analyst within the field of air transportation. My areas of expertise include aviation policy, air transportation economics, airport operations, international air transportation, and air traffic management.

My research focuses on the public administration and financing of air transportation infrastructure, including:

 § Aviation taxes and user fees
 § Air transportation issues in the European Union
 § Economics of North Atlantic air traffic management

In particular, I specialize on the issue of aviation taxes and user fees, and have a number of published papers on the topic. I hold an MIT Research Affiliate appointment and serve as the co-principal investigator for the MIT Airline Ticket Tax Project.
