Welcome!

I am a PhD candidate in Economics at the University of Toronto.  

My primary research areas are international trade and innovation. I study the economic and national security implications of international standards, focusing on Chinese state-sponsored 5G standards. My other research examines how global supply chains are shaped by foreign risks.

In the 2025-2026 academic year, I will serve as an International Economics and Global Security Postdoctoral Fellow at Dartmouth College.

In August 2026, I will join the Department of Economics and Business Economics at Aarhus University as an Assistant Professor.

My CV is available here.
