Teaching
I teach courses in experimental methodology, behavioral financial economics, and game theory. The material is demanding, and a full understanding requires substantial quantitative work. I also provide optional materials for students interested in developing research ideas. I have worked with students at the undergraduate, MS, and PhD levels, several of whom have become coauthors. My own undergraduate research produced my first paper and helped set the direction of my career.
