I am a managing director at Econ One, an economic consulting firm, and a professor in the economics department at the University of Utah, where I taught advanced antitrust economics to PhD candidates this Fall. I am also the executive director of the Utah Project, an interdisciplinary institute at the University of Utah dedicated to the study of antitrust and consumer protection.
I am an applied microeconomist with an emphasis on industrial organization and regulation. In an academic capacity, I have published several books and book chapters spanning a range of industries and topics, and my articles have appeared in dozens of legal and economic journals. My competition-related articles have appeared in multiple American Bar Association (ABA) Antitrust Section journals, and I have been a panelist at several ABA Antitrust Section events. In a consulting capacity, the American Antitrust Institute (AAI) nominated me for antitrust practitioner of the year in 2013 in the economist category for my work in Tennis Channel v. Comcast, and the AAI named me as co-Honoree in the same category in 2018 for my work In Re Lidoderm Antitrust Litigation.
I have testified as an economic expert in state and federal courts, as well as before regulatory agencies. Federal courts have certified multiple classes in reliance on my economic testimony on antitrust impact and damages. I also have testified before Congress several times on competition policy. Finally, I have served as an antitrust expert to Competition Bureau Canada and to several state Attorneys General.
