Welcome!
I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Economics at Rice University, and a CEPR Research Affiliate.
My research area is microeconomic theory, in particular information economics, political economy, auctions and social learning.
Most of my work centers around multidimensional information acquisition: how individuals decide about what to learn in varying strategic environments.
