Welcome to my website!

I am a professor of sports economics at Faculty of Business Administration and Social Sciences at Molde University College in Norway. Between 2015-2018, I was a post-doctoral fellow at the Swiss Institute for Empirical Economic Research (SEW) chaired by Prof. Dr. Michael Lechner at the University of St. Gallen in Switzerland. I received my PhD in Economics at Ben Gurion University in Israel under the supervision of Prof. Aner Sela and Prof. Oscar Volij.


My main fields of interest are Behavioral Economics, Sports Economics, Gender Economics, Favoritism and Corruption, Operational Research, and Contest Theory.

The focus of my research is on contest design and its effects on performance in real competitive settings.
