Hello! I am an Assistant Professor of Management at Georgetown's McDonough School of Business. Prior, I worked as a Postdoctoral Fellow at Northwestern's Kellogg School of Management. I completed my Ph.D. at the Harvard Kennedy School.
My primary line of research tests how leaders' decisions shape their reputations, often in unexpected ways. This work uncovers when and why avoiding cognitive biases (e.g., sunk cost fallacy, loss-gain framing effects) undermines trust. I also identify communication strategies leaders can use to maintain trust. Finally, I study disagreement over strongly-held attitudes (e.g., politics), especially mis-perceptions of conflict counterparts and interventions to overcome these mis-perceptions.
My CV is available here.
