The first chapter of my thesis develops and estimates a dynamic structural partial equilibrium model of schooling and work decisions.  The estimated model explicitly accounts for the simultaneous choice of enrolling in school and working.  It also allows for endogenous leisure choices,...

We develop a powerful and user-friendly program for numerically solving first price auction problems where an arbitrary number of bidders draw independent valuations from heterogenous distributions and the auctioneer imposes a reserve price for the object. The heterogeneity in this model arises...

This paper investigates conditional choice probability estimation of dynamic structural discrete and continuous choice models. I extend the concept of finite dependence in a way that accommodates non-stationary, irreducible transition probabilities. I show that under this new definition of...
