Research Interests:

Capital markets research, including securities regulation/enforcement, exempt securities transactions (e.g., equity crowdfunding), financial reporting and disclosure, entrepreneurial finance, and corporate governance.

I am an assistant professor of accounting at the Quinlan School of Business at Loyola University Chicago, located in downtown Chicago. I completed my Ph.D. in accounting at Duke University’s Fuqua School of Business, which I concluded with a two year visit at the Kelley School of Business at Indiana University. I maintain an active CPA license in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

My research focuses on financial accounting issues, particularly those related to securities regulation/enforcement, financial reporting and disclosure, entrepreneurial finance, and corporate governance. Currently, I am particularly interested in the securities market promulgated by Regulation Crowdfunding. While my primary research method is empirical-archival, I have some projects that use experimental, survey, and analytical methods to better address research questions where archival methods are less appropriate. My work has been featured on numerous media outlets, cited in congressional testimony and comment letters to the SEC, and discussed with SEC staff and Commissioners.

I have taught undergraduate and graduate courses in financial accounting, managerial accounting, and basic mathematics. I have also instructed new hire assurance associates at PwC as well as professionals at a start-up incubator.

Prior to graduate studies, I was a full-time member of Fairfield University's accounting faculty, where I taught financial and managerial accounting. Before teaching, I was an auditor for PwC in Boston, where I worked on asset management and employee benefit plan engagements. In between Fairfield and PwC, I was a year-long volunteer in Ecuador.

Outside of academia, I enjoy getting outside, doing a good DIY household project, and finding an unbeatable sale.
