Welcome to my website. I am an Assistant Professor of Economics at the Norris-Vincent College of Business at Angelo State University and a Research Assistant Professor at the Free Market Institute at Texas Tech University. My research lies at the intersection of political economy and economic development. I research how informal economies persist and how violence shapes institutional outcomes in settings of weak or contested state authority.
