About Me

I’m a first year Ph.D. student in Information Systems at Emory University.

Research Interests

My research interest lies at the intersection between societal and technical aspects of the real world. In terms of methodologies, I focus on integrating Machine Learning with Causal Inference. Specifically, I’m interested in considering multiple modalities together to uncover novel features that can explain the mechanism of human behavior within the context of {E-commerce, Online Platform}. Additionally, I am passionate about exploring Algorithmic Fairness. For example, I have curiosity about trade-offs between algorithmic bias and consumer bias. Building on my past experiences in finance, I am also intrigued by how Fintech has transformed consumer behavior and financial markets.
