My research is in behavioral and experimental economics, including applications in cultural economics and political economy.
I received my Ph.D. in 2016 from the University of Bonn and subsequently joined Harvard’s Economics Department. At Harvard, I teach a Ph.D. course on Experimental Economics and an undergraduate class on Economics and Morality.
