New WP: CA’s $20 fast-food minimum wage cut visits 6–7% but revenue only ~5%. Low-income customers barely change behavior; higher-income visit less but spend more. Consumer burden is uneven and mostly borne by higher-income households.

Hello #econsky!
I am an associate professor at UNC Greensboro studying (mostly) health economics. My recent work has been around using human mobility data to study reproductive health and public health policy. But be on the lookout for more work around higher education policy!
