Welcome

Photo of meI am a behavioral economist studying how agents make decisions over time. My work combines theory, experiments, and structural methods, with applications in long-run health behaviours such as smoking and exercise, and household finance applications such as savings and retirement.

I am recently interested in artificial agents, whose psychology and decision-making differ fundamentally from human agents.

I am an assistant professor (tenured) in the Department of Economics at LSE. Before this, I was a Robert Wood Johnson Scholar in Health Policy Research at Harvard University. I hold a PhD in Economics from the University of California Berkeley, and a S.B. in Economics from MIT.

I co-direct the STICERD Psychology and Economics Programme. The Psychology and Economics Seminar Schedule is found here.

I seem to have a common name.
