Jared Barton's Homepage

Welcome to my website! I'm a PhD candidate from George Mason University, where I am supported by the Mercatus Center and affiliated with the Interdisciplinary Center for Economic Science (ICES).

I'm an experimental economist with a focus on public choice (and public economics generally). My days are spent thinking about how people persuade one another, specifically in elections, since I used to work here. Before that, this firm employed me to support U.S. EPA's regulatory development, so regulatory policy continues to be an interest as well.

Previously I taught for a year at Miami University of Ohio.
