I joined the academia after working as a professional and executive for 25 years.

My primary research interest are business and financial history, particularly in investigating (1) corporate museums as a primary source of inestigating narratives, and (2) revisiting financial history through the lens of developments in collaterals. I am grateful to receive grants to fund these research. I serve the greater society by co-founding and managing the Society for Law and Management (Chairperson) and Journal of Law and Management (Editor) while enjoying teaching in college.
