Elena Krasovskaia

Welcome! I am a PhD candidate in the Charles H.  Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management at Cornell University. I am an applied microeconomist interested in food, behavioral, experimental economics, and public policy. 

I am on the 2025-2026 academic job market.

My current research focuses on barriers to food security in the United States with an emphasis on physical access to food. For more details, please check out my research page. 

I work with both secondary and primary data. My broad research agenda aims to understand consumer food choices and food-related behavior. 

Prior to joining Cornell, I earned a Master of Science degree in Environmental Economics from the University of Georgia.
