Welcome to my homepage. I am a PhD candidate in Economics at Tinbergen Institute and Erasmus University Rotterdam and I will complete my degree in September 2010.
My interests are microeconomics and industrial organisation, and my work looks at how firms have a strategic incentive to influence the transmission of information between consumers. I look specifically at the role of advertising and capacity constraints.I am on the job market in 2010. I presented at the 2009 European Winter Meeting of the Econometric Society in Budapest, and will attend the January ASSA meeting in Atlanta.
I also have a Joint Honours degree in Mathematics and Physics from McGill University in Montreal, Canada, where I am originally from.
