About Me

I am a Ph.D. candidate in Information Systems and Operations Management at Goizueta Business School, Emory University. I am fortunate to be advised by Professor Nikolay Osadchiy.

My research lies at the intersection of operations management and information systems, with a focus on supply chain resilience, digital platforms, and globalization. Drawing on a network perspective, I study how firms and supply networks respond to operational disruptions, trade uncertainty, and geopolitical shocks, and how AI and digital technologies reshape information sharing, user engagement, and cross-border interactions on online platforms.

Methodologically, I combine econometric techniques for causal inference with network analysis and computational methods for analyzing unstructured text and image data, including large language models (LLMs) and vision-language models (VLMs).

I am a first-generation college student.
