About Me
I'm the father of two great kids (aged 8 years and 6 months), and have been married for 19 years to a woman that rejects the null of average quality at the 95 percent significance level. I'm a currently untenured (but hopefully not for long) finance professor at a doctoral granting school somewhere on the East Coast of the USA. I teach classes in corporate finance, investments, and fixed income, manage a student-run investment portfolio and publish empirical research on finance and accounting that almost no one ever reads (except by accident or unless they're REALLY bored). My perspectives on academia (and the world) have been shaped by a number of experiences: becoming an Evangelical Christian back in the mid-70s, growing up in a largely Italian-immigrant mill town, working at a number of jobs (from being a tax auditor to being a floor worker in a locked inpatient adolescent psychiatric unit) before entering academia, and finally, losing a 10 year old son to cancer after a 6 year struggle.
When you've got water stuck in your ear, how do you get it out?
A very long straw.
