Welcome to my website! I am an Assistant Professor of Finance at NUS Business School, National University of Singapore.
I conduct research on financial stability, focusing on how financial regulation and economic incentives shape the behaviors of intermediaries and households in ways that affect systemic risk. My research has been published in the Review of Financial Studies, the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, and Management Science.
I received my Ph.D. in Finance from New York University Stern School of Business, USA. As an undergraduate, I studied economics and finance at Peking University, China.
