I am currently an Assistant Professor of Entrepreneurship and Strategy at the Leeds School of Business, University of Colorado, Boulder. Until recently, I have been an Associate Professor of Economics (tenured) at the University of Oklahoma, Norman.

I conduct empirical work about how startups and VCs create and evaluate game-changing innovations and how ventures as well as corporations make strategic decisions. Some of my recent work also evaluates the potential of AI (“Generative” as well as “Industrial”) for making and implementing strategy. In my work, I utilize novel survey design, field experiments, natural experiments and structural models.
