Broadly, my interest is in studying how both market and non-market institutions in workplaces affect human behavior. I use both experimental economic and conventional econometric methods to evaluate theoretically grounded propositions, generating insights that inform theory and policy in the areas of political economy, behavioral economics, personnel economics, labor economics, and industrial relations.
