I am an applied theorist with a focus on Information Economics. Using a combination of theory, empirical and experimental methods, my research has centered on several areas: 1) informational asymmetries and enforcement in credit and asset markets, 2) the role of beliefs and information in shaping asset prices and individual preferences; and 3) coordination problems in heterogeneous economies. My work provides insights into such phenomena as credit crunches; economic fragility and regime change; the effect of technological progress in credit markets; asset pricing anomalies; and information-driven choice under risk and uncertainty. I joined the School of Economics at Drexel University in the fall of 2015 after being an assistant professor in economics at UW-Madison from 2007 to 2015.
