Primary research areas

His­tor­ic­al Mar­ket Form­a­tion
Mar­kets must be made. His­tor­ic­al re­search re­veals the people, spaces, and ac­tions that brought people to­geth­er in mar­ket re­la­tion­ships.
Re­spons­ible Entrepreneur­ship
Entrepreneur­ship can be a pos­it­ive good in so­ci­ety but some­times it goes wrong. Un­der­stand­ing the cir­cum­stances where re­spons­ible entrepreneur­ship flour­ishes can help make a bet­ter fu­ture.
En­tre­pren­eur­i­al­ism 
Entrepreneur­ship is not just an act of ven­ture cre­ation. It has be­come an ideo­logy that shapes what we be­lieve and how we work and live.

I work to un­der­stand how people have jus­ti­fied en­tre­pren­eur­i­al ac­tion through time
