Wallace Department of Business and Economics at Salve Regina University. I previously served as a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Economics at New York University. I completed my Ph.D. in economics at George Mason University in Spring 2023 and earned my B.A. at Kenyon College, where I studied economics, mathematics, and philosophy. I am an applied microeconomist with research interests in political economy, economic history, and law and economics. My research often seeks to explain institutional change through the lens of new institutional economics. https://www.peterhazlett.com/coaching daily 0.75 2025-08-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed95cdfe43a0e7398cd890c/1592364719149-1NGBVOUPUH8AJPUKL8RD/GMU+Coaching+1.jpg Coaching - George Mason University Upon entering my first year of graduate school in August, 2018, I began coaching as a volunteer assistant for George Mason University’s men’s tennis team. I worked under head coach Jimmy Davis, helping run practices 1-2 times a week. I coached in 40 dual matches spanning across five seasons. Over the years, I helped the Patriots record wins against Villanova University, Lehigh University, Colgate University, and A10 conference opponents University of Dayton (1-1) and University of Richmond (1-13) for the first time in program history. When coaching in 3-3 match situations, I culminated an 8-3 record with the team. In 2021 and 2023, George Mason achieved a program high number 5 seed in the A10 Conference Championships. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed95cdfe43a0e7398cd890c/1592366129666-WCJ6WOGMFJEQZPIGX8IC/Robby%2BPlaying.jpg Coaching - Junior Traveling Coach While in college, I worked with junior Robby Shymansky (pictured serving) as a traveling coach to United States Tennis Association (USTA) tournaments including the Middle States Sectional Championships (2016, 2017, 2018), the National Winter Championships (2016, 2017, 2018), and the National Championships in Kalamazoo, MI (2017, 2018). Robby would reach a career high national ranking of 29 during this time, and would go on to play college tennis for Yale University. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed95cdfe43a0e7398cd890c/1592366188267-FKRNGW5T90REQX98RMAX/Austin.jpg Coaching - Kenyon College I played college tennis for four seasons at Kenyon College from 2014-18, helping the team win four North Coast Athletic Conference Championships leading to three Sixteen 16 and one Elite 8 appearance. While at Kenyon, I helped organize and coach weekly training sessions outside of practices with teammates and coached in over 25 dual matches. During my later years, I worked closely with players Austin Diehl (pictured left) and Jake Zalenski. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ed95cdfe43a0e7398cd890c/1592405060859-20CJUA0WSHG74OSRTX10/Golf+Club.jpg Coaching - Fox Chapel Golf Club For four summers between 2015-2018, I worked as the Assistant Tennis Professional at the Fox Chapel Golf Club in Pittsburgh, PA.
