Here I present code from some of my research projects during my doctoral studies, and some personal coding projects.

Research Projects

Do Racial and Ethnic Minorities Benefit From Supplemental Benefits in Medicare Advantage?

In this project, I develop and estimate demand model where consumers select either a Medicare Advantage plan, based on their demographic characteristics and the features of avaliable Medicare Advantage plans in their county. I integrate individual-level data and plan level-data, and apply numerical optimization tecnhiques to conduct Maximum Likelihood Estimation. Note, this project does not contain data to reproduce the code

Did the Medicare Advantage Double Bonus Program increase Supplemental Benefit Offerings in Medicare Advantage plans?

In this project, I conduct Difference-in-Difference estimation to analyze the effect of double quality bonuses in select counties for Medicare Advantage plans. I also obtain county-level characteristics from ACS using the United States Census Bureau API.

Personal Projects

Identifying Baseball Players Skilled in Hitting, Power, and Speed

This SQL project uses the Lahman Baseball Database (2023 version) to identify “three-tool” baseball players.

A player is defined as “three-tool” if they rank in the top quartile in batting average (hitting), slugging percentage (power), and stolen bases (speed) in a given season among players with more than 300 at-bats.
