I provide data-based evid­ence on in­nov­a­tion and mar­kets

I am an applied economist working at the intersection of industrial organization, innovation, and finance. My research studies how intellectual property rights, financing conditions, and firm strategy shape inventive activity, market performance, and labor outcomes. 

Empirically, I combine microeconomic theory with causal inference, machine learning, and text-based measurement. Current projects examine research disclosure, intellectual property protection and enforcement, science-to-market transfer (e.g., NASA technology licensing), the relationship between artificial intelligence and competition, and the finance-innovation margin. 

The aim of my research is to provide evidence that informs competition and innovation policy and firm decisions.
