Welcome!

I am a Ph.D. Candidate at the Rotman School of Management, University of Toronto.

My research interests are in urban economics, industrial organization, and development economics, with a particular focus on fostering urban development in the digital age. In my job market paper, I investigate the the causal impact of food delivery platforms on the urban retail landscape.

Prior to my doctoral studies, I received my bachelor’s degrees from Peking University, and my master’s degree from the University of Chicago.

I am on the 2025 - 2026 Job Market. You can find my CV here
