I am an Associate Teaching Professor of Economics and the Iglehart-Lightcap Faculty Fellow in the School of Business at Wake Forest University (WFU), where I teach graduate courses in Economics to MBA and MSM students. Prior to joining WFU, I taught Economics at many other universities, including North Carolina State University (NCSU) and Elon University. I hold a Ph.D. degree in Economics from NCSU. My main areas of research include Microeconomics, Behavioral and Experimental Economics, Business Economics, Applied Econometrics, Macroeconomics, Economic Systems, and the Economics of Risk, Insurance, and Production, among others.
