My main research areas are the financing of entrepreneurship and the economics of innovation. My work consists primarily in the application of industrial organization economics and corporate finance to entrepreneurship and business strategy. My work focuses on the use of micro-data in large scale empirical analysis. I seek to base my work on clearly specified underlying theory and believe that my work contains useful theoretical innovation, although the primary value added of my work is usually empirical. My job market paper (How Start-up Firms Innovate) and one published paper (Government-Sponsored versus Private Venture Capital) consider the intersection of innovation and entrepreneurship. My other research, including two papers in the process of submission to peer-reviewed journals and a set of projects currently in development, is split evenly between these two areas.
