I am an applied macroeconomist with research interests in consumption and saving, economic growth, and long-run development. My work also intersects with political economy and household finance.

I earned my Ph.D. in Econometrics and Quantitative Economics from Louisiana State University in August 2025. I currently work as an RTA Lecturer in the Department of Economics at James Madison University.

I have experience teaching undergraduate courses in Principles of Macroeconomics, Principles of Microeconomics, Money and Banking, and Urban Economics.

I earned my Master's degree in Economics and a Graduate Certificate in Econometrics at Louisiana State University. Before joining LSU, I completed my Master's degree in Financial Economics at Boston University and received my Bachelor's degree with a major in Computer Science and Technology and a minor in Finance from Zhengzhou University.
