Mike Palazzolo Assistant Professor, Graduate School of Management
Mike Palazzolo received his degree in Marketing from the
University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business in 2016. His
research examines various intertemporal trade-offs, ranging from
consumer search to financial decision making.
In 2012, the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act (HHFKA) placed strict nutritional requirements on food served at public schools. In a recent study, we explored whether changes to the healthiness of school meals led parents to substitute towards them, away from purchasing meals from supermarkets; and, if so, which households were more willing to do so.
Blame for widespread food insecurity across the U.S. is frequently directed at the prevailing minimum wage. In a recent study, we examined whether and to what extent increases to the minimum wage improved the quantity and nutritional quality of food purchased by minimum-wage earners.
