I am an economics writer and researcher with interests in macroeconomics, finance and behavioral economics (along with their intersections). I am a regular economics contributor at various outlets including Forbes though this blog is intended for more rigorous posts. I graduated with an M.B.A. from The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania and a B.A. in Mathematics and Economics (with honors) from the University of Chicago.
