Welcome to my webpage!

I am an applied microeconomist working on empirical industrial organization, health economics, and the Chinese economy. My recent work focuses on competitive strategy and regulations in pharmaceutical markets.

I am an Assistant Professor of Strategy at the Kellogg School of Management. I received my Ph.D. in Economics from Stanford University in June 2022.
