Utility Case Studies for Agency Publication
I run a small business, Fuller Creative, that provides copywriting and consulting services for a wide array of clients, with a focus on utilities. Recently, I wrote and developed 25 utility program case studies for research agency publication. Samples of these case studies are available upon request.
Academic Work: Energy and Utility Economics
I, along with a co-author, have a working paper, entitled Economies of Scope in the Water-Energy Nexus, that is currently submitted and under review for publication. As a graduate student in Mineral and Energy Economics at Colorado School of Mines, I contributed to research on the economics and rate structures of water and electric utilities. During this time, I also worked as a teaching assistant for the undergraduate course Principles of Economics.
