Kristen McCormack

I am an economist at the U.S. Treasury Office of Tax Analysis, with a disciplinary focus in environmental, public, and labor economics. I received my Ph.D. from Harvard University in 2023, where I was a Harvard Environmental Economics Program Pre-Doctoral Fellow. My research examines how climate change and air pollution exacerbate social inequality and the opportunities for policy to mitigate these impacts.

Prior to graduate school, I worked as a research assistant at Resources for the Future. I graduated summa cum laude from Pomona College, with a B.A. in Economics. My research has been published in the American Journal of Agricultural Economics, RAND Journal of Economics, Energy Policy, Environmental Law Reporter, and the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society.
