I'm a health economist and an assistant professor in the Department of Health Policy and Management at the University of Pittsburgh. My research examines how US public policy impacts people from historically marginalized groups, including those living in poverty, experiencing chronic illness or disability, or exposed to the criminal legal system. I'm particularly interested in the economics of public health insurance programs, long-term care, immigration, and mental health care. Through my research, I hope to contribute to a more equitable and accessible health care system.

I completed a postdoc at the Leonard Davis Institute of Health Economics at the University of Pennsylvania in June 2024 and earned my PhD in health policy and economics at Harvard University in November 2021. My [dissertation](https://amandakreider.github.io/dissertation/) demonstrated how Medicaid managed care plans' economic incentives influence access to specialty care for enrollees. While in graduate school, I held a fellowship in aging & health economics at the National Bureau of Economic Research. Prior to my PhD, I worked as a research associate at PolicyLab at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. When I'm not working, you can find me lifting weights, cooking up something delicious, tending to my window boxes, watching movies, managing my fantasy basketball team, [coding](https://amandakreider.github.io/side-projects/) for fun, practicing yoga, or passionately cheering on the Sixers and the Phillies.
