About

Overview

I am an applied microeconomic theorist with primary research interests in industrial organization and international trade. Within industrial organization, I focus mainly on information disclosure and product design. Within international trade, my focus has been mainly on political economy aspects of trade policy determination. Previously, I was an Associate Professor at the Higher School of Economics in Moscow (2014-2019), and an Assistant Professor at CERGE-EI in Prague (2006-2014). I received my Ph.D. from the University of Virginia.
