I am an associate professor in the economics department at Williams College.  My CV

I focus on macroeconomics and financial theory.  My research has been published in the JF, JFE, AEJ:Macro, JMCB, RED, and the EJ, among others. 

I primarily study how characteristics of financial markets affect the broader economy. Recent work studies drivers of inflation. Much of my work considers the appropriate monetary and regulatory policy responses to pursue financial stability.

During my last sabbatical I worked as a Senior Researcher in the Office of Financial Research, U.S. Department of the Treasury.  Views expressed on this site or in linked papers are my own and do not necessarily reflect those of the U.S. Treasury or the Office of Financial Research.
