Jacob Light

Economics Ph.D. Student

Hello world - I am a Ph.D. candidate in Economics at Stanford University. My primary fields are labor and public finance. I am particularly interested in how changing technology impacts the skills students need to develop in college and how colleges adjust to help students prepare for an evolving labor market.


I will be on the job market in 2023-24.
