I am an Assistant Professor of Economics at The University of Tulsa. I specialize in political economy, with a particular focus on probabilistic reasoning and the application of mathematical and statistical methods to economic theory. My research investigates the institutional and structural mechanisms underlying capitalism and the dynamics governing variables such as profits, wages, income, wealth, and output.
I study economic systems characterized by complex, non-additive interactions among individuals. These interactions are organized and constrained by institutions, giving rise to recurring patterns and statistically emergent outcomes at the macroeconomic level. A central objective of my research is to explain how aggregate economic regularities emerge from the relationship between individual behavior, institutional structures, and broader social processes.
My work lies at the intersection of political economy, heterodox macroeconomics, the history of economic thought, and quantitative empirical methods. I am particularly interested in Maximum Entropy Economics, Bayesian methods, and other probabilistic approaches that can contribute to a statistically grounded theory of distributional and macroeconomic outcomes.
