As a quantitative macroeconomist, I develop and apply structural models to study topics ranging from fiscal policies, welfare implications, family economics to the UK housing markets. Being an advocate of integrating generative AI into higher education, I am particularly interested in how to leverage AI to enhance teaching effectiveness and to improve student learning outcomes.
