Elizabeth Sendich is Lead Economic Modeler with the Energy Information Administration (EIA)’s Macroeconomic and Emissions Team with the Office of Integrated & International Energy Analysis, and delights in the world of how and where things are made. She helps maintain EIA’s long-term international economic forecasts and enhances public understanding of important issues related to the industrial sector.
Before beginning work with EIA, Elizabeth studied chemical engineering at Michigan State University, finishing her BS in 2004 and her PhD in 2008, while working in the DOE-funded Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Laboratory. Her dissertation covered the development and results of her model to simulate biorefineries integrated with realistic agricultural landscapes as providers of feedstocks and other goods simultaneously.
In her free time, she enjoys video games and crochet, and she loves nature and "wild" animals, particularly her husband, daughter, and service-dog-in-training.
