I teach in the Department of Economics and I'm a faculty member in the International Studies Program. 

My research measures public intergenerational transfers between birth cohorts and the effect on saving rates and generational equity.  I also produce applied research on regional economic issues, like housing and real estate and healthcare.  Lastly, I am interested in sports economics and player salaries and performance in the National Basketball Association.

Here is my curriculum vitae.

Courses I teach include Economic History of the U.S., Intermediate Macroeconomics, Economic Education, Money and Banking, Global Economics and Politics, Graduate International Economics, Economies in Transition and Development, and Contemporary Topics and the Capstone Experience.

Sometimes I paint.

And sometimes I restore old bicycles.
