Biography

I am a professor of agricultural economics at the University of Saskatchewan in Canada. As a Canadian, I went to school in Montreal, Toronto and then the University of California. I conduct research in transportation economics and regulation. My current interests are in structural and simulation modeling as applied to these fields.
