Looking to hire a talented and dedicated econometrician? I highly recommend Nadja van 't Hoff. We collaborated with Arthur Lewbel on "LiM and the CC-LATE", now R&R at The Review of Economics and Statistics (REStat). In her JMP, Nadja develops novel identification results for settings with non-binary, ordered treatments.
