Welcome to my website! My name is Tihitina but my friends and future editors may call me Tina. I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Resource Economics at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. I am an environmental economist with secondary interests in development economics. My research focuses on policy design and implementation. Within this area, I research issues related to monitoring and enforcement, strategic behavior, environmental justice, information, and environmental health. I examine these issues in the context of water pollution regulations but my findings have implications for other media.

Outside of economics, I like to obsess over college basketball (Go Hoos!), college basketball analytics, and play competitive dodgeball.
