Bio
I am a Professor of Economics at UNSW Business School and the University of Warwick.
I am a core member of ERINN (Economic Research on Identity, Norms, and Narratives) and a research affiliate of CEPR (the Centre for Economic Policy Research).
I received my PhD from Harvard in 2009, where I was a Presidential Scholar.
My main areas of research are sociology and economics, organizational economics, and applied microeconomic theory. My work focuses, in particular, on the importance of social interaction.
