I'm an Assistant Professor of Economics at Rochester. I'm from Australia originally. My undergrad degrees are in Mathematics and in Classics (from ANU) and my Ph.D. in Economics is from MIT; my dissertation was called Essays in Search Theory and focused specifically on generalizing standard search models to allow for firms with decreasing returns to labor. This is what I look like.

My research interests are in search theory. I am interested in efficiency of equilibrium in models with bargaining and with directed search, and in the implications of labor market frictions for the dispersion and dynamics of the firm size distribution. My current projects in progress examine the implications of mismatch models for employment flows; the relationship between occupational mobility and financial frictions; and stock-flow matching.
