About Aziza

Aziza Jones joined the Wisconsin School of Business in June 2021 as an Assistant Professor in the Marketing Department.

Professor Jones’ research approaches the idea of marketing against inequality by focusing on two main themes. First, she examines how marketing strategies can uplift and reveal insights about marginalized communities, advising public institutions on promoting equity. Second, she studies how prevailing beliefs about inequality influence consumer behavior (and vice-versa), guiding business leaders in factoring in inequality for optimal decision-making.

Professor Jones earned her B.A. in Marketing, Management, and Entrepreneurship here at the Wisconsin School of Business, and her Ph.D. in Marketing from Rutgers University.
