Marie Connolly Pray, Ph.D.

But in truth, it had not exactly been gold, or even the promise of gold, but more like the fantasy of gold,

the fairy dream that the gold is there, at the end of the rainbow, and will continue to be there forever--provided, naturally, that you don't go and look. This is known as Finance.
-Terry Pratchett, Going Postal

Welcome to my homepage!

Short vita

Born and raised in Montreal, I went to Université de Montréal for Bachelor's and Master's Degrees in Economics, then to Princeton University to pursue my Ph.D. I graduated from Princeton in 2007, then worked as an associate at the economic consulting company Cornerstone Research in New York City. I married T.J. Pray in 2007 and subsequently added his name to mine, hence the new name. I am now the proud mother of a young boy named Vincent Huckleberry, and I teach at the Université du Québec à Montréal.
