My articles have won the nomination award of Masahiko Aoki Award for Economics Paper, the Gregory Chow best paper award, and the best paper award of the Department of Economics of the Chinese University of Hong Kong.

I joined the Global Risk Department of Bank of America as an economist after graduating from my doctor's degree in 2016, mainly doing macro research related to stress testing. In addition, I have also worked as a visiting scholar and summer economist at the International Monetary Fund for a short time. In 2018, I returned to China to join Alibaba and stayed in several departments. First, I did some trade-related macro research in the supply chain sector. Then, I worked as a comprehensive risk management expert in business risk control, mainly in the comprehensive risk management of financial products and big data analysis of fraud and anti-money laundering. Then, I worked as an industry research expert in Luohan Academy, mainly doing research of China's e-commerce industry belt based on Alibaba's big data.
