I am working on my Ph.D. in Managerial and Organizational Behavior at the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business.

My specialization is the psychology of decision making and judgment. Although my interests are widespread, I have two primary lines of research:

 

  • self-control: how do we regulate our behavior when long-term goals conflict with short-term temptation? 

 

  • hedonic judgment: how do we form judgments about our own happiness and well-being, and what are the consequences?
