About me
I am a final-year PhD candidate at the Ohio State University, advised by Prof. Wuyang Hu.
I specialize in food and consumer economics, agribusiness, and sustainability.
My research primarily focuses on the nexus between consumer behavior, preferences, and their impact on food markets and policymaking using behavioral analysis, with applications also in environmental and resource economics.
I am proficient in utilizing advanced econometric methods and harnessing both primary and secondary data sources to conduct research with implications for food marketing and sustainability on local, national, and global scales.
I am on academic job market this year, please reach out for any opportunities!
