Jonathan Zandberg

I am a Finance Ph.D. working as an economist at the U.S. Census.

I am interested in entrepreneurship, small businesses, and public policy. My research focuses on empirical analyses that combine new sources of data with natural experiments induced by policy reforms. My motivation lies in the belief that equal opportunity in entrepreneurship generates sustainable economic growth.

I will be joining Wharton in the summer.
