He explores topics like fair allocation of time slots, subjective utility under discontinuous preferences, and the design of auctions and voting systems. His recent studies include pendulum auctions for housing markets and axiomatic analyses of historical institutions like the papal conclave.
Publications & Awards: His work on Menu mechanisms was a finalist for the YEEA (2021), and he presented at the prestigious Jaffray Memorial Lecture (2016). Notable publications include analyses of Groves mechanisms, core allocations in housing markets, and envy-free time-slot allocation.
Grants & Labs: While grants are not explicitly listed, his research on mechanism design and fair allocation often intersects with funded projects in market design and social choice. He currently serves on the editorial board of Theory and Decision.
