Academic Experience

As an Assistant Professor of Management at Iowa State University's Debbie and Jerry Ivy College of Business, I bring a unique blend of academic expertise to my role. With a PhD from Auburn University, my research focuses on pivotal moments in a company's lifecycle - mergers and acquisitions, divestitures, and downsizing. My work has been published in prestigious outlets like the Journal of Management, Harvard Business Review, and the Journal of Business Research. I'm always eager to connect with fellow researchers, students, and industry professionals to discuss the latest trends in M&As or potential collaborations.
