I am an Assistant Professor of Accounting at the Binghamton University School of Management. My research lies at the intersection of taxation, financial accounting, macro-accounting, and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues. I am particularly interested in how accounting information shapes economic outcomes and public policy. My recent work examines ESG rating competition, the impact of tariffs on U.S. firms, and the role of tax-related disclosures in forecasting GDP growth. My research has been published in the Journal of Accounting Research and presented at leading conferences, including the FARS Midyear Meeting, the UNC Tax Symposium, and the Hawaii Accounting Research Conference.

Before joining Binghamton, I earned my Ph.D. in Business Administration (Accounting) from Duke University, where my dissertation examined the relationship between deferred tax asset valuation allowances and macroeconomic growth. I also hold an M.A. in Economics from Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, where I completed the Honors Program for Academic Excellence, and a B.A. in Economics and Management from The Open University of Israel, graduating summa cum laude. Prior to academia, I worked in research roles at the Israel Tax Authority and economic policy think tanks, where my work informed policy discussions on taxation, tariffs, and social investment.

I have been teaching across multiple academic institutions since 2012. In recognition of my teaching effectiveness and impact on undergraduate education, I was named one of the 2025 Best Undergraduate Business Professors by Poets & Quants for Undergrads, selected among the top 50 professors nationwide from more than 1,000 nominations. I am deeply committed to student-centered instruction and regularly integrate current research and real-world applications into the classroom.

I have taught courses in financial and managerial accounting, cost accounting, economics, and finance at both undergraduate and graduate levels. At Binghamton, I have received outstanding student evaluations (average rating of 4.9/5) and was honored with the Patty Bloomer SOM Faculty Award for innovative use of artificial intelligence (AI) in teaching and student learning. My goal is to make complex accounting concepts accessible and relevant by connecting theory with practice and equipping students with the analytical tools needed for professional success.

My service extends to my department, university, and the broader academic community. At Binghamton, I have served on the School of Management’s Undergraduate Committee, Accounting Advisory Council, and faculty search committee. Professionally, I review for major conferences including the FARS Midyear Meeting, the American Accounting Association Annual Meeting, the European Accounting Association Annual Congress, and the Hawaii Accounting Research Conference.

Beyond research and teaching, I am passionate about bridging the gap between academia and policy, and I continue to explore questions at the heart of accounting’s role in society and the broader economy.
