Welcome
Thank you for visiting my website, where you can find information about my education, research and teaching experience.
I'm currently a postdoctoral research scholar at the Olin Business School, Washington University in St. Louis (USA) and, I'll be joining the Department of Organization Studies at the School of Behavioral and Social Sciences, Tilburg University (NL) as an assistant professor this coming fall.
I received my PhD in business administration and MBA from the Carlson School of Management, University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. My research interests are at the intersection of occupations and organizations, and span multiple levels of analysis. I'm particularly interested in understanding how occupational groups emerge and behave within organizations. The context of my research includes a medical residency program at an elite medical institution, a primary care clinic division of a regional medical system, an R&D unit of a multinational firm, law firms, and think-tanks. The occupational groups I examine include medical residents, physicians, nurses, managers, engineers, and lawyers. My work has appeared in the Journal of Organizational Behavior, and Organization Science.
My teaching interests are broad and include organizational theory and behavior, strategic management, and managing innovation and change. My past teaching experience includes teaching 2 semesters of an undergraduate class titled Managing Innovation and Organizational Change at the Carlson School of Management. My teaching received the Excellence in Teaching Award based on student ratings in 2009. I've also taught 1 semester of an undergraduate class titled Organizational Behavior Within the Firm at the Olin Business School, Washington University in St. Louis. In addition, I've been a teaching assistant for 7 years at the Carlson School of Management for a broad range of MBA and undergraduate classes including Managing People and Organizations, Negotiation Strategies, and Fundamentals of Management.
