Yaming Gong - 宫亚明

Welcome! I am an Economist at Amazon (Seattle), where I build and deploy data-driven models and causal analyses to inform business decisions. I received my Ph.D. in Finance from the Fox School of Business at Temple University.

My expertise lies in delivering actionable insights through rigorous quantitative analysis. I specialize in causal inference, experimental design, and applied machine learning, with strong proficiency in Python and SQL. I enjoy translating complex analytical results into clear recommendations for cross-functional stakeholders.

I live in Seattle, WA with my boyfriend Erik & Jimmy, a 5-year-old miniature poodle. Outside of work, I love playing badminton (currently recovering from a wrist injury 😅) and enjoy exploring new restaurants & local coffee shops. We’ve also started watching the NFL — let’s go 12s!
