Only took me 5 years to drive 5 hours and clearly it was worth it

#EconTwitter Any econ JMCs working on insurance topics (not just health insurance!) want feedback on their JMPs? I am assigning working papers for a referee report assignment in my PhD class & would be happy to use JMPs & pass along (my curated) feedback from the class & me!

Grace is a wonderful person with a big heart. She is also a competent researcher and coworker. Search committees, she would be an excellent hire.
