My current research explores three separate streams: 1) How markets are shaped by knowledge systems, 2) The intersection of technology, consumption, and markets, and 3) Consumption in relational contexts
I am a Full Professor and Concordia University Research Chair in Consumption, Markets, and Society at John Molson School of Business. I also have a secondary appointment as Professor of Management at the University of Bath.
