Welcome

I am a Ph.D. candidate in Quantitative Economics at the Manderson Graduate School of Business, University of Alabama, advised by Dr. Jonathan Hall. My research lies at the intersection of transportation economics, urban economics, and applied microeconomics. I am particularly interested in how transportation infrastructure, emerging mobility technologies, and urban policies shape regional economic activity, accessibility, and spatial development. My work uses applied econometric methods, causal inference, spatial data, and large-scale administrative datasets to study how transportation systems shape economic outcomes across places.

Prior to joining the University of Alabama, I received an MSc in Behavioural Economics from the University of Nottingham. I also hold a Bachelor of Economics from Minzu University of China, with exchange study at the University of Washington and the University of California, Irvine.
