​I am currently a postdoctoral fellow at the Guanghua School of Management, Peking University, as part of the Peking-Princeton Postdoctoral Program. From September 2020, I will be a postdoctoral research associate at the Paul and Marcia Wythes Center on Contemporary China at Princeton University. I received my Ph.D. in political science and M.S. in statistics from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) in 2019.

 I am interested in political economy, comparative politics, and applied statistics. Using observational data, experiments, and formal modeling, my recent projects study bureaucracy, corruption, and state-business relations in authoritarian regimes, with an emphasis on China.

My work has appeared in Journal of Theoretical Politics and International Studies Review.
