My research interests lie at the intersection of international business, economic sociology, and organization studies. My core areas of research are comparative corporate governance and firm internationalization processes. In most of my work, I rely on comparative research methods to conduct systematic analyses of economic organizations across countries, and most recently, I pay particular attention to the role that ownership plays in influencing governance practices and stakeholder relationships. My main scholarly contribution is the development of theories of comparative corporate governance and the empirical applications and extensions of these frameworks.
