Welcome to my website!

I am currently an Associate Professor at the Division of Social Science, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST). My research interests include comparative political economy, international political economy,  and authoritarian politics. 

I received my doctorate in political science from Northwestern University in June 2016. I was a Shorenstein Postdoctoral Fellow in contemporary Asia at the Walter H. Shorenstein Asia-Pacific Research Center of Stanford University (2016–2017).  I hold bachelor’s degrees in public policy and economics, and a master’s degree in public policy from Peking University, Beijing.
