In 2007, I was named the Keough-Hesburgh Professor of Economics in the Department of Economics at the University of Notre Dame. Before coming to Notre Dame, I spent
28 years in the Atlantic Coast Conference having completed my undergraduate
work at Wake
Forest University in 1983, my Ph.D. in Economics from Duke University in 1987, and 20 years on
the faculty in the Department of
Economics at the University of Maryland. I am a Research Associate of the National Bureau of Economic Research and the
Director of Research of the Ford Family
Program in Development here at Notre Dame. My principal research
interests are in applied microeconomics and I have worked on topics in labor
economics, the economics of education, public finance, industrial
organization, and health economics.
My colleague Jim Sullivan
and I are the co-founders of the Lab for
Economic Opportunities (LEO), a unique partnership between the University
of Notre Dame and Catholic
Charities USA that attempts to provide evidence-based poverty solutions. |
