Flabbi_LucaLuca Flabbi is an Associate Professor with specialization in labor economics, most notably search models of employment choices. He received his Ph.D. from New York University and previously taught at Georgetown University in Washington, DC. He will teach both graduate and undergraduate classes. He is a native of Italy; the biggest adjustment to US higher education for him is beginning work in mid-August. His relations in Italy are still at the beach!


jane_fruerwirthJane Cooley Fruewirth is an Assistant Professor with specialization in labor economics, the economics of education, and social economics. She has her Ph.D. from Duke University and has had previous professorial appointments at the University of Wisconsin in Madison and at the University of Cambridge in the UK. She is very happy to be back in North Carolina but sees it through new eyes: the geography of Chapel Hill is quite different for a graduate student than for a mother of two small children. She will be teaching both graduate and undergraduate classes.


Staub_Kalina2Kalina Staub has joined us as a Lecturer in Economics. She also has her Ph.D. from Duke University, and is returning to North Carolina from the University of Toronto in Canada. (In her case, the warmth of Chapel Hill is a welcome feature of the place.) She will teach labor courses for undergraduates and has also developed a “Gender and Economics” course that she offers for advanced undergraduates.

He will be offering classes in industrial organization both for our graduate students and for our undergraduates.

Kyle Woodward is an Assistant Professor in Microeconomic Theory. He has just completed his Ph.D. at UCLA, and his research agenda is focused upon the behavior of bidders in auctions. He’s moving to Chapel Hill from Denver, where his wife has been completing her graduate degree. His first impression of Chapel Hill when he arrived in August? It’s hot! He will assist in teaching the core microeconomics course to graduate students, and will also offer advanced undergraduate courses in microeconomics.
