The Virtual Municipal Finance Workshop (co-organized with Dermot Murphy and Pengjie Gao) is slated to start again in the Spring 2025 semester!! You can find all papers and schedules from the earlier versions of the workshop since 2020 at https://www.muni-workshop.com. Please let me know if you have any questions or would like to get involved.
I am an Assistant Professor of Finance at the Wharton School. I research issues surrounding public finance, corporate and personal income taxation, and financial regulation. My research often uses quasi-experimental variation to answer questions with relevance for designing efficient fiscal and regulatory policy. I am particularly interested in how public entities raise funds–primarily through issuing bonds or raising taxes–and how those mechanisms affect businesses, consumers, investors, and workers.
I am a graduate of Duke University with both an MA and PhD in Economics. I earned a BS in Economics at Ohio University in the Honors Tutorial College. Before grad school, I worked as a Tax Analysis Professional 1 in the Ohio Department of Taxation and as a Research Associate with the Center for College Affordability and Productivity.
