Hi, I'm Jon
I am a behavioral scientist and Assistant Professor of Organizational Behavior at WashU.
I study judgment and decision making, with an emphasis on uncertainty: how people form beliefs, make judgments, and choose what is best in light of uncertain information and situations.
My research spans many domains of behavioral science, including: risk perception, behavioral ethics, social norms and inferences, and behavioral interventions to improve individual decisions.
I am personally and professionally interested in Effective Altruism, including ways that decision science may support EA causes.
About Me
I have a PhD in Behavioral Decision Making from UCLA. My dissertation committee was composed of Craig Fox and Noah Goldstein
(co-chairs), Eugene Caruso, Jana Gallus, and Suzanne Shu.
Previously I was a teacher and leader at Collegiate Academies in New Orleans and a Teach For America corps member.
Born and raised in St. Louis, I hold a BA in philosophy from Brown University.
