Ben Lee received his Ph.D. from the Annenberg School in 2005, and now serves as a clinical assistant professor, teaching research methods in the undergraduate and graduate programs. He has taught research methods for more than 13 years, and has won awards for helping students overcome their anxiety learning statistics. In a similar capacity, Lee (together with Dr. Daniela Baroffio) guides Communication Management students in their capstone course.

He is intensely curious about how people make sense of and act in volatile and uncertain environments. He has researched why people tend to hold losses in bear markets and how not to do that. He continues to explore how people manage their finances in today's increasingly turbulent environments.

He remains a fervent student of behavior in financial markets, and is constantly striving to improve his investment returns.
