There is an ancient Chinese motto from the pre-Qin dynasty, saying "It takes ten years to grow a tree, but a hundred years to nurture a generation."

Welcome to my personal website!

I am a final-year PhD candidate at Ross School of Business, University of Michigan, where I am fortunate to be advised by Prof. Jun Li, Prof. Damian Beil, and Prof. Jagadeesh Sivadasan. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Economics with a minor in Data Science from Fudan University, China.

My research is dedicated to advancing equitable opportunity for the younger generation and underserved populations, with a focus on uncovering and addressing disparities that have long been overlooked by industry practitioners and policymakers in contexts such as Education Technology (EdTech), AI of Education, higher education, and childcare. I employ a variety of empirical and behavioral methods such as econometrics, field experiments, applied machine learning, and natural language processing.

To learn more about me, you can access my CV, LinkedIn profile, SSRN homepage, Google Scholar, or send me an email. Always happy to meet new friends!
