I am an Assistant Professor of Business in the Accounting Division of Columbia Business School. My research interests lie in the intersections of accounting, economics and finance. Specifically, I focus on the role of information in the interaction between agents, along with its implications on the real efficiency and the price efficiency of financial markets. My research uses analytical models as a tool to provide consistent explanations for empirical anomalies in accounting practices and institutions that contradict conventional wisdom.
Before joining Columbia, I earned my Ph.D. in Accounting from Carnegie Mellon University Tepper School of Business where I received the Alexander Henderson Award for Excellence in Economic Theory and the William W. Cooper Doctoral Dissertation Award. I also hold a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration (Accounting and Finance) from the University of Hong Kong.
