About Me

I teach economics at Cornell University and specialize in macroeconomic policy both in the US and in developing countries. I often travel overseas to do research and consulting in other countries, most recently in Africa and Central Asia. I sometimes wonder how this ever happened, but I guess it is no real surprise after previous careers as a bond trader in the British government bond market, an economist at the World Bank, and a short order cook on the beach in Delaware. My personal obsessions are politics and sailboats so I alternate between being a complete news junkie and being completely unplugged from any media or communications whatever on sailboats wherever there is warm weather. Having grown up overseas in various countries in Latin America I always have a desire to be nearer to palm trees.
