I am an Assistant Professor of Finance in the Department of Finance and Business Law, College of Business and Economics (CoBE), at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. My research focuses on corporate finance, with some elements of asset pricing. Specifically, my work examines CEO compensation, stock price crash risk, the effects of cybersecurity risk and biodiversity risk on the cost of capital, and credit risk. My research has appeared in the Journal of Corporate Finance, and has been presented at the Financial Management Association (FMA), Southern Finance Association (SFA), and Southwestern Finance Association annual meetings (SWFA), among other national and international venues. I hold a Ph.D. in Finance from the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley, an M.Sc. in Financial Engineering from University of Tehran.
