Hello! Welcome to my personal website. I am a professor in the Management Department at the Fowler College of Business at San Diego State University. Previously, I worked at the School of Labor and Employment Relations at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I earned my Ph.D. in sociology from the University of California at Berkeley in 2008.
As a sociologist who studies social, psychological, and institutional dynamics in and around business organizations, I conduct academic research on executive compensation, executive succession, boards of directors, and corporate governance. I have published in Administrative Science Quarterly, Strategic Management Journal, Journal of Management, Journal of Management Studies, Corporate Governance: An International Review, Social Forces, and other scholarly journals. I am an editor of Corporate Governance: An International Review and serve on the editorial review boards of Administrative Science Quarterly, Journal of Management, Journal of Management Studies, and Strategic Organization. On this website, you can see a sample of my work. Thank you!
