Bio

     I am a professor in the Department of Economics at the College of Charleston, where I've taught since 2007. My research examines the economic and social impacts of gambling, with a focus on U.S. casino gambling. I am one of the top experts in the world on this issue, which I've been studying since 1995. I have published two books and more than 50 articles and book chapters on the socioeconomic effects of gambling.
