Richard Works

Welcome to my website!

As the last name suggests, I have a busy life. My career is three-pronged: (1) Economist — I am a Senior Economist at the Bureau of Labor Statistics in Washington, DC. (2) Professor — I am also an Adjunct Faculty member at the University of Maryland Global Campus. (3) Minister — I have been involved in music ministry since a young age and I am currently a seminary student studying for future ministry opportunities in expository preaching and teaching applied biblical concepts for life.

I completed my doctorate in finance at Capella University in 2016. I earned a master’s degree in finance at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater in 2012, and a bachelor’s degree in economics and finance at Tennessee State University in 2010. I am interested in the field of microeconometrics for business management. My current research focuses on consumer price fluctuations (inflation).
