I am currently a PhD candidate at the Department of Economics, National University of Singapore.
My research interests lie in the fields of behavioral and experimental economics, and applied microeconometrics, with a focus on people’s (mis)perceptions/beliefs/cognition about certain aspects of ourself, such as our self-confidence and limited attention, and how they shape behaviors in various contexts such as decision-making, investment, and business. Method-wise, I conduct online experiments and empirical analysis to infer credible causality. I also build simple models to derive implications that are testable with experimental or observational data.
Prior to my PhD studies, I worked as a full-time research assistant at The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen. I did my master’s in economics at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. Back in college, I studied physics and economics at Jinan University.
