I am an Assistant Professor in the Dept of Economics at Duke University and Faculty Research Fellow of the NBER.

My recent research covers several areas of empirical Industrial Organization.  Particular interests include:

* the effects of selective entry on auction design and competition policy
* the effects of horizontal mergers and taxes on product characteristics
* the dynamics of markets for perishable goods
* the estimation of static and dynamic games with multiple equilibria or selection
