I am an associate professor in the economics department at Williams College.  My CV

I focus on macroeconomics and financial theory.  My research has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Finance, the Journal of Financial Economics, the American Economic Journal: Macroeconomics, the Journal of Money, Credit and Banking, the Review of Economic Dynamics, and the Economic Journal, among others. 

I primarily study how characteristics of financial markets affect the broader economy.  Much of my works considers the appropriate monetary and regulatory policy responses to pursue financial stability.

I'm running the NYC marathon this year to raise money for charity. Click here for more information and to support me!

During my last sabbatical I worked as a Senior Researcher in the Office of Financial Research, U.S. Department of the Treasury.  Disclaimer: Views expressed on this site or in linked papers are my own and do not necessarily reflect those of the U.S. Treasury or the Office of Financial Research.
