150: Ben Outar: CASE Summer Intern


Listen Later

As we wind down the summer, I wanted to share a bit about our CASE intern. We had the opportunity to hire someone to join our team and work on a project. This summer’s project was a data driven analysis. We hired a student who told us he was interested in human behavior and economics, and we thought that might be a fun combination. Special shout

out to my colleague Emma Wellspeak who ultimately chose and hired our intern, Ben. Listen to learn the perspectives from a current college student who was immersed in development for 8 weeks this summer!

Ben Outar is a rising sophomore at the University of Toronto, studying economics and psychology. At Toronto, he is a resident at Trinity College and an editor for Trinity’s newspaper.

At Yale this summer, he has been working with the Parents Gifts team, specifically using data to analyze and provide insights into the Parents Leadership Council program.
