I majored in economics and philosophy at Grove City College before completing my doctorate in economics at George Mason University. My research focuses on the legal origins and political consequences of equity markets. You can find links to some of my papers under the Research tab. I also publish essays on my Substack.

I love teaching more than anything -- navigate over to the Teaching page to see some sample syllabi and rave reviews from students.

When I'm not teaching, I enjoy classic literature, mountain sports (hiking, backpacking, skiing), and chess. I live in Western PA with my wife and son, where I'm delighted to return to Grove City College as an Assistant Professor of Finance and Economics in the Winklevoss School of Business.
