I am an Assistant Professor of Marketing at the Haas School of Business at the University of California, Berkeley where I teach courses on Decision Making to both MBAs and undergraduate students. In my research, I investigate the psychology of consumer judgment and decision-making, focusing primarily on situations that involve uncertainty. Prior to joining Haas, I received my PhD in Decision Processes at the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania, and worked as an Assistant Professor at the University of Chicago's Booth School of Business.
