I am a Professor of Economics. I serve as an Associate Editor for Econometrica and Economic Theory/ETB. My research interests are in the field of microeconomic theory and applications, with a focus on communication and information design, optimal contracts, and robust decision theory.

I received my PhD from Stony Brook University in 2005. Before joining Edinburgh in 2022, I was a researcher at the Federmann Center for the Study of Rationality (Hebrew University of Jerusalem) and the Hausdorff Center for Mathematics (University of Bonn), and I have taught at the Kyiv School of Economics, Queen Mary University of London, the University of Glasgow, and the University of St Andrews.
