Primary research areas

En­tre­pren­eur­i­al fin­ance
My re­search ex­plores how star­tups ac­quire fin­an­cial re­sources un­der un­cer­tainty, fo­cus­ing on the be­ha­vi­or of ven­ture cap­it­al­ists, cor­por­ate ven­ture in­vestors, and crowd­fund­ing par­ti­cipants. I study how in­form­a­tion asym­met­ries, dis­clos­ure laws, and in­vestor psy­cho­logy shape in­vest­ment de­cisions and en­tre­pren­eur­i­al out­comes.
La­bour Mo­bil­ity and Hu­man Cap­it­al
I in­vest­ig­ate how col­lab­or­a­tion, in­nov­a­tion strategies, and in­di­vidu­al abil­it­ies in­flu­ence em­ploy­ee mo­bil­ity and firm per­form­ance.
Entrepreneur­ship
My work ex­am­ines the drivers of en­tre­pren­eur­i­al entry, per­form­ance, and re­si­li­ence. I ex­plore how cog­nit­ive abil­ity, gender dy­nam­ics, and so­cial ex­pos­ure shape en­tre­pren­eur­i­al be­ha­vi­or, as well as how in­sti­tu­tion­al and con­tex­tu­al factors in­flu­ence ac­cess to fin­ance and ven­ture growth.
In­nov­a­tion Strategy and Tech­no­logy Dis­clos­ure
Di­versity and In­clu­sion in In­nov­a­tion and Entrepreneur­ship

Un­der­stand­ing How Ideas, People, and Cap­it­al Con­nect

I study how people, ideas, and capital come together to create innovation and Entrepreneurship. My research looks at how entrepreneurs find the right investors, how finance shapes new ventures, and how talent moves across firms to spread new ideas. 

I want to understand what helps entrepreneurs succeed – and what holds them back. My work helps investors, policymakers, and founders build fairer, smarter, and more inclusive markets for innovation and entrepreneurship. 

I also explore how gender, diversity, and skills shape access to opportunities in entrepreneurship and work life.  

I actively support the entrepreneurship and innovation research community through reviewing high quality journals, research collaborations, and mentoring young scholars.
