Detailed CV
My research is situated within behavioral economics and focuses on organizational economics and environmental and public policy. I study decision making in organizations, markets, and policy contexts, with a focus on outcomes related to efficiency, distribution, and environmental or social sustainability. Using primarily laboratory and field experiments, complemented where appropriate by surveys and field data, my work investigates mechanisms that foster cooperation, reduce negative externalities and unethical behavior, and lower behavioral frictions that hinder socially desirable actions.
