Hi, I'm Dorsa Ghamkhar.

On the 2026–2027 job market

I am a PhD candidate in Finance at the Schulich School of Business, York University, in Toronto.

My research is in behavioral finance, ESG and corporate finance, sustainable finance, and personal finance. My job market paper studies how CEOs with lobbying experience shape corporate innovation in different industries.

I teach Personal Finance as a course director at Schulich. Before my PhD, I earned an M.Sc. in Business Administration (Finance) and a B.Sc. in Engineering from Sharif University of Technology. I have passed CFA Level I and FRM Part I.
