Hi! I’m a finance professor and researcher who enjoys mentoring students interested in business, finance, economics, AI, and law. I studied economics and applied mathematics at UCLA, earned an MA in Economics from Vanderbilt, and completed my PhD in Finance at Rutgers. Outside of research and teaching, I enjoy exploring new technology, discussing current events and markets, traveling, trying new restaurants, and watching sports. I also enjoy helping students think about careers, graduate school, and long-term goals.
