I am a behavioral scientist interested in experimental and quantitative methods, insights from cognitive science, and business applications of artificial intelligence. I serve as an Assistant Professor of Business Analytics and Applied AI at the University of Northern Iowa, a Ford Foundation Fellow at Rutgers University, and a visiting scholar at the University of Chicago. I lead the Behavioral Economics and Organization Research Group (BEORG).
In my research, I study how human decision-makers interact with AI, factors of AI adoption, and how one can use AI to predict behavior. More broadly, I seek to understand the relationship between communication/text/language AI and managerial decision-making, pro-social choice, the role of norms, and the role of beauty.
I currently teach courses in Applied AI, Analytics, Business Intelligence, and Machine Learning, and have taught Game Theory, Managerial Economics, Behavioral Economics, and Econometrics at the graduate and undergraduate levels. I have a proven track record of guiding student research.
