Research Interests

My research interests are primarily in corporate finance and financial accounting. Specifically, some of my recent studies explore questions such as how corporate tax aggression affects capital structure, how securities analysts help institutional investors, how headquarters location influences stock volatility and why innovative firms hold more cash.
