About Me

I am a postdoctoral fellow at the Walter H. Shorenstein Asia-Pacific Research Center at Stanford University. I study international political economy, with a focus on how states use economic tools to shape international rules and institutions. My work also examines how firms influence the design and diffusion of environmental standards, particularly in plastics regulation and climate-related trade measures. My research has been published in the American Journal of Political Science.

Before joining Stanford, I was a lecturer in the Department of Political Science at the University of California, Berkeley. I received a Ph.D. in Politics from Princeton University, where I specialized in international relations and formal and quantitative methods. I hold an M.A. in the Social Sciences (MAPSS) from the University of Chicago and a B.S. in Mathematics from the University of Hong Kong.
