I am a Ph.D. Candidate in the Department of Agricultural
Economics, Purdue University. My research interests are in nonlinear time series analysis of commodity
prices, vertical price transmissions, structural changes in consumer preferences, and multinomial logit
analysis of consumer preferences for product attributes. My current research applies nonlinear econometric
modelling and simulation analysis to time series data to examine the relationship between commodity prices.
The general objective of my research is to find evidences of smooth transition autoregressive (STAR) type of
relationships in systems of commodity prices and estimate systems of equations using multivariate smooth transition models.
I obtained my Master of Science degree from the Department of Agricultural Economics at Purdue University
in 2006. The topic of my thesis was “ Consumers'
Willingness-to-Pay for Selected Pork Attributes in the Republic of Georgia”.
My fields of research and teaching interests are applied econometrics, time series analysis, consumer
economics, and agribusiness. Main topics of my research interest are commodity price analysis, and
consumer demand analysis for food products and attributes. I have also done research in fields related to
development, transitional economies, and precision technologies.
