About me

I am an Assistant Professor in the Division of Social Science at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.

I work on social science methodology, particularly at the intersection of causal inference and machine learning.

My workflow often involves two steps. First, I translate substantive questions into formal estimands. Second, I develop statistical estimators with good properties for these estimands.
