I am currently an Associate Professor of Economics at Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU), where I am also an affiliated faculty of the Political Economy Research Institute (PERI). I earned my Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2016 and then became a visiting assistant professor at Vanderbilt University, before joining MTSU in 2017. I regularly join Puey Ungphakorn Institute for Economic Research and Chulalongkorn University as visiting fellow.

My research interests include international trade, optimal tariffs/taxation, the WTO, trade agreements, behavioral agents, Asian economies, Thailand's military coups, and search models.
