His teaching interests center on (omnichannel) retail operations, the marketing-operations interface, empirical research methods, and consumer decision making. He has taught to both small and large audiences, ranging from the undergraduate to the (Exec) MBA and Ph.D. level. He is the recipient of several teaching awards.
