Cameron Greene

Cameron Greene uses tools from labor and public economics to study how to improve education systems. He works with Professor Zimmerman to develop and maintain a new dataset describing US school superintendents and with Professor Biasi to analyze how exposure to frontier knowledge and peer collaboration in college influence individual labor market outcomes. His independent research examines the effects of differentiated pay on teacher staffing and student achievement during the COVID-19 pandemic, using variation across school districts to identify causal impacts.

Cameron graduated with Distinction in Economics from Yale University. He has held research positions at Harvard Business School, the President’s Council of Economic Advisers, the U.S. Department of the Treasury, and the Brookings Institution.
