She completed her Ph.D. in Economics at the University of Southern California. Her research interests broadly lie in econometrics and applied microeconomics, with a special focus on causal inference, and network data. Her dissertation focused on developing econometric methods for causal inference under spillover effects. Specifically, she developed a method for identifying spillover effects using network data, and a method for analyzing a clustered randomized experiment under spillover or general equilibrium effects using difference-in-differences type identification strategy. Her works also include an exploration on instrumental variables (IV) methods and mediation analysis. She has been a teaching assistant for various Econometrics and Statistics courses at the University of Southern California.
