I am an Assistant Professor of Finance at Dalton State College’s (DSC) C. Lamar and Ann Wright School of Business. At Dalton State College I teach principles of finance, intermediate corporate finance, investments, risk management, and behavioral finance. Prior to Dalton State College, I have also taught financial management and portfolio management at the undergraduate level and business finance and corporate finance at the graduate level.

My primary research interests are in the biology of finance, behavioral finance, and experimental finance. I focus on determinants of financial behavior including non cognitive abilities of individuals (like personality traits), peripheral physiological processes (such as hormonal activity), personal attributes related to differences in risk taking (such as health), and affective states (i.e. mood). Additionally, I do research on market efficiency and empirical asset pricing. My research has been published in a variety of leading peer reviewed journals such as Review of Financial Economics, Review of Behavioral Finance, Journal of Economics and Human Biology, and Journal of Financial Markets and Portfolio Management. Additionally, my downloads in the Social Science Research Network rank in the top 12 percentile all time and in the top 3 percentile for the past year for paper downloads.
