I am an Assistant Professor of Accounting at Rutgers School of Business Camden, Rutgers University. I obtained my Ph.D. from the David Eccles School of Business, University of Utah.
My research examines how market structure shapes the dissemination and incorporation of accounting information into stock prices, how managerial incentives affect financial reporting and voluntary disclosure decisions, and how different stakeholders demand and use corporate disclosures. My work has been published in top accounting journals including the Accounting Review, and the Review of Accounting Studies.
Prior to starting my academic career, I was an external auditor at KPMG. I earned my Master of Accounting from Bentley University and Bachelor's in Accounting from Sun Yat-sen University, China.
