I'm an Associate Professor of Finance and Daniel C. Smith Fellow at Indiana University. I have a secondary appointment in the Department of Advanced Business Technologies.

 I also serve as a visiting scholar with the FDIC and Associate Editor at The Review of Financial Studies. Prior to starting at Indiana University, I completed my PhD at Duke University and interned with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and the Federal Reserve Board.

I study empirical corporate finance with a focus on (i) debt relief policy and (ii) labor and finance. This work has been published in the Journal of Finance, Journal of Financial Economics, Review of Financial Studies, and Review of Finance. 

I teach a PhD course called Financing Innovation, Labor, and Households, as well as undergraduate, and MBA courses in Banking, Fintech, Machine Learning, and Artificial Intelligence.
