Serena Goldberg is a Ph.D. candidate at Yale University, focusing on labor and public economics. Her work primarily concerns education markets, maternal labor outcomes, and family economics. She is currently studying how the design of child care subsidy policies in the United States affects the labor market for child care workers, as well as the price and quality of child care. Her other ongoing work considers the effects of preschool availability on families in Kenya, the contributors of differences in the distribution of family income by race, and the determinants of for-profit college enrollment. Goldberg received her B.A. in economics, mathematics, and applied mathematics and statistics from Johns Hopkins University.
