Matthew Grimm

I'm currently pursuing graduate studies in Information Economics at the University of Washington. At my core, I’m a theorist. While data is increasingly abundant, theory continues to play a vital role — not only in deepening our understanding of empirical results, but also in exploring behaviors that data alone can’t capture, such as effort and incentives.

Before coming to UW, I earned a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and Economics from the University of Oregon (Go Ducks!).

Outside of academics, I’m a passionate fan of the New York Jets—which, admittedly, can be a test of patience. I also enjoy following the NFL Draft, Major League Baseball and playing all kinds of strategy games.

Thanks for visiting!
