Tougaw’s main passion is policy and interpersonal behavior. He enjoys analyzing commerce and trade within and outside of the United States, as well as learning about trends that influence price, supply and demand.
Typically, his articles focus on empirical evidence of outcomes and steps forward rooted in quantifiable values that can easily be put in place to resolve conflict. His articles also tend to stay away from emotive responses to issues, and virtually never indulge in ad hominem or condescending terms to the focus of the article, but rather seek to facilitate a more policy-centered critique
In his spare time, Tougaw enjoys fishing, hiking and Golf, and is very excited to help elevate the content of the opinion desk.
