Welcome to my website!
Economic consultant with Keystone Strategy: An economic, tech, and strategic advisory firm.
My main work is in competition in markets for digital advertising and web search, as well as gaming, corporate finance, and technology.
I enjoy using econometric tools to find meaning in the world, particularly in competition and strategy for consumer goods and services.
I’ve worked on the Microsoft-Activision merger, among others I can’t disclose by name:
🔎 A monopoly case against a major web search provider
🪧 Several competition cases against a major digital advertising platform provider
🤖 An intellectual property case against a Generative AI provider
💊 A collusion case in the generic pharmaceutical industry
🕵️ A collusion case against a ring of top banks
🎮 A class action antitrust case against a video game platform provider
🛒 A merger review in the consumer goods market research industry
