- I am passionate about investigating marketing phenomena through quantitative empirical analysis, particularly the factors that influence firm performance and other outcomes. In my courses, I strive to create an interactive and engaging learning environment that encourages students to think critically and apply theoretical knowledge and analytical skills to questions in marketing. I particularly welcome students who are interested in pursuing rigorous academic research and motivated to develop their skills in theoretical reasoning and empirical analysis.
