Welcome! I am a PhD candidate in Business (Mathematical Finance) at Lehigh University.
My research focuses on rational inattention, information structure, and behavioral finance, with an emphasis on agents’ micro-level portfolio selection under macro-financial dynamic uncertainty.
I received rigorous Ph.D.-level training in econometric theory, probability, advanced statistics, macroeconomics (DSGE), and discrete-time economic dynamics at Boston University (M.A.), and subsequently deepened my mathematical foundation at Lehigh through advanced study in stochastic calculus, stochastic control, stochastic filtering, information theory, and financial engineering.
This interdisciplinary foundation supports my research on belief formation, heterogeneous attention allocation, and decision-making under macroeconomic uncertainty.
