About me: I am an Assistant Professor at UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business and a Faculty Research Fellow at the National Bureau of Economic Research. I earned my PhD in Managerial Science and Applied Economics from The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania and my BA (with honors) in Economics and Mathematics from Swarthmore College.

 

My research: I study the business of healthcare, examining the financial, operational, and managerial decisions that shape healthcare delivery. I am particularly interested in understanding how changes in provider ownership, organizational structure, and management practices impact the cost and quality of care.
