Hello!
I am an Associate Professor in the Greenberg School of Risk Management at St. John's University. My research interests include catastrophe risk management, insurance economics, earthquake insurance, climate risk, and predictive modeling.
I grew up in Shenzhen, China, which is right next to Hong Kong. I received my Ph.D. in Actuarial Science, Risk Management and Insurance (with minor in Economics) from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I received my B.A. in Economics and Statistics from Peking University. Before joining St. John's, I was Assistant Professor in the Finance Department at the University of Connecticut.
