I am a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) at the University of Manchester and a guest researcher at Copenhagen Business School. My research interests include innovation, entrepreneurship, and economics of science. My research focuses on how individuals and organizations create knowledge and innovate, with a focus on startups. I am particularly interested in understanding the trajectory of knowledge creation, from ideation to performance. 

Prior to joining Manchester, I was a postdoctoral researcher at Copenhagen Business School. I got my Ph.D. in management from Scheller College of Business, Georgia Institute of Technology. I completed my BS in Psychology at Peking University in China and an MSc in Management at Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University Rotterdam. I play video games (which I have widely used as my research setting).
