I received my Ph.D. in Economics in May 2010 from the University of California, San Diego, where I studied in econometrics, finance, behavioral economics, and game theory.

My primary research interest lies in adopting structured, non-equilibrium behavioral models with appealing positive properties as the basis for inference and counter-factual analysis in economic problems.  Inference using models that relax the equilibrium hypothesis of behavior provides both a mechanism for protecting against model mis-specification as well as a tool for evaluating behavioral hypotheses using field data.  In addition to helping characterize economic problems and individual behavior in the field, these models generate robust counter-factual predictions and prescriptions for incorporating data into the decision making process.
