I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Economics at Texas A&M University. I specialize in applied macroeconomics, time series analysis (both classical and Bayesian), econometrics, and forecasting.
My current research focuses on identifying macroeconomic shocks, monetary policy communication, uncertainty, and their macroeconomic implications. I also work on model selection and evaluation tools in the context of time variation. I have a particular interest in predictive density evaluations.
I am a member of the Society for Nonlinear Dynamics and Econometrics executive committee as a former president, the newly elected president of the Armenian Economic Association, and a Research Fellow at the Centre for Economic Policy Research.
I recently taught ECMT 475, Economic Forecasting for undergraduates, ECMT 674, Economic Forecasting for Master's, and ECMT 638, Applied Time Series Econometrics.
