Kort om meg
I am a professor in the UiS School of Business and Law at the University of Stavanger in Norway. I am interested in understanding how and why economic agents make their choices, as well as the societal implications of these decisions. To gain insights, I employ surveys, experiments, large-scale data, and econometric analysis. I mainly teach methods (statistics, econometrics, and market research methods) and taught at the bachelor's, master's, and doctoral levels.
Previous to coming to Norway, I was working as an assistant professor at the Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics at Colorado State University. I received my M.S. and Ph.D. in Agricultural and Resource Economics, specializing in environmental economics and econometrics, from the University of California, Davis. My dissertation focused on consumer choice regarding organic fresh produce. I received my B.S.s in Economics and Statistics from the University of Washington.
I live in Stavanger, Norway, with my Norwegian, environmental economist husband, and our two daughters. We moved to Stavanger from the U.S. in 2008.
I was born and raised in Japan. I moved to the U.S. to attend the University of Washington in 1994. Although I have spent my entire adult life living outside of Japan, I still maintain my Japanese citizenship.
Since 2020, I have also served as an adjunct professor in the Institute for Technology, Enterprise, and Competitiveness (ITEC) at Doshisha University in Kyoto, Japan.
