BIOGRAPHY

I am the Stirek Assistant Professor of Finance at Oregon State University. My empirical research is at the intersection of information economics and corporate governance. I have a Ph.D. in Finance from Penn State’s Smeal College of Business. Prior to attending Penn State, I worked as an equity research analyst at Credit Suisse in New York City. There, I covered companies in the industrial conglomerate (e.g. GE, Honeywell) and large-cap banking (e.g. JP Morgan, Bank of America) sectors. I also have experience working in the debt capital markets division of KeyBanc Capital Markets. I hold a B.B.A in Finance and Business Economics from Ohio University’s Honors Tutorial College.
