Random Quote: The goal of the scientist is to comprehend the phenomena of the universe that he observes around him. To prove that he understands he must be able to predict. To predict quantitatively one must have a mechanism for producing numbers, and this necessarily entails a mathematical model. – Richard Bellman
This page is a brief discussion of my research interests, which are centered around macroeconomics but stray into various areas of mathematics, statistics and computing.
My more mathematical interests are listed on my mathematics page.
