I am a political economist researching the political economy of development in China. My work examines the mechanisms through which political conflicts, financial crises, and distributional concerns influence economic policy. Currently, my research centers on a book project titled How China Really Succeeded (and Could Fail): Inside the Party's Engine of Transformation. My research has been published in journals such as Small Business Economics, Business and Politics, and the Journal of Contemporary China.
Beyond my scholarly work, I consult on economic policy for international organizations, including the G-24, and maintain active affiliations with the International Economic Association, the European Economic Association, and the Econometric Society. I received my Ph.D. in Economics from the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) and my B.A. from the University of Virginia.
