Primary research areas

Char­it­able giv­ing
What makes people donate money to a char­it­able or­gan­iz­a­tion
Donor life­time value and churn man­age­ment
What makes donors more fin­an­cially valu­able for a char­it­able or­gan­iz­a­tion and how can this be op­tim­ized for
Ad­vert­ise­ment avoid­ance, mar­ket­ing fa­tigue, per­sua­sion know­ledge
When does mar­ket­ing, as used by char­it­ies, in­cur ad­verse ef­fects on dona­tion be­ha­vi­or

I want to help char­it­ies un­der­stand the ef­fect of their private fun­drais­ing ef­forts

My research helps: 

- Charities understand the (desirable and adverse) consequences of their marketing on donation behavior 

- Charities use their private fundraising budgets more effectively, such that they can grow and better support their cause 

- Understand what makes people give their hard-earned money to charitable causes in the field 

- Uncover the monetary consequences of asking donors for too much
