Thanks for visiting my website.
I’m an economics PhD student at Princeton. My research interests are at the intersection of industrial organization and political economy. Specifically, I aim to study the interaction between market competition and political decisions: Market power affects the policy-making process, which in turn defines the rules governing the market. I’m also working on other projects related to structural PE.
Before moving to Princeton in 2024, I was a predoc at Harvard for two years. Before that, I completed my undergraduate degree at Renmin University in Beijing. When I’m not working, I watch quiet, slow-paced movies that are often very sad. I mentor younger students in economics pro bono, too.
