My primary research stream studies the role of social media in capital markets, including Twitter/X and YouTube. I also study core accounting topics such as earnings management or post-earnings announcement drift.
I bake lots of bread, such as baguettes, pizzas, and sourdoughs. I enjoy many outdoor activites, like camping, backpacking, and canoeing. I also enjoy studying Native American history, such as the Missippian and Ancestral Puebloan cultures.
