#EconSky EXCLUSIVE: I’d like to tell you all about our top JMC from UConn this year, Anastassiya Karaban. I’ve been working w/ Ana for several years, & she's really impressed me. I think she should be on the radar of any department hiring in Labor, Experimental, Management, or the Econ of Gender.

Yes yes yes yes yes! Hard to think of anyone who is more deserving: Claudia’s work (on gender and beyond) is so important and a huge inspiration for many of us! Also hard to think of anyone who is more supportive, welcoming, or thoughtful.

Huge congratulations to Claudia!
