I am an Assistant Professor in the Marketing Division at Columbia Business School. My research interests are primarily in empirical and theoretical industrial organization. Specifically, I study the dynamics of demand and pricing in high-tech markets, product innovation and replacement, new product introduction, market structure, and firm entry. I teach the elective course on Pricing Strategy for MBA and Executive MBA students.
One industry that I find particularly fascinating is the PC microprocessor market, effectively composed of Intel and AMD. In one paper, I focus on the consumer's perspective and study the dynamics of replacement cycles for processors, which I view as a close proxy for a computer. In a second paper, joint with Ron Goettler, we seek to quantify the benefits of competition in the industry, comparing current outcomes with an alternative model that treats Intel as a monopolist.
