Welcome to my website!
I am currently an assistant professor at the Department of Government and Public Administration, University of Macau. I received my Ph.D. degree from the Department of Political Science, Texas A&M University, worked as an assistant professor at The Education University of Hong Kong, and was a postdoctoral research fellow at the Columbia-Harvard China and the World Program.
I received training as a scholar in international political economy, yet my present focus is primarily on the historical political economy of state institutions, specifically within the context of pre-modern East Asia. Additionally, my work extends to the computational social sciences, encompassing a range of activities from estimating heterogeneous treatment effects using causal forests to employing reinforcement learning algorithms for modeling strategic interactions in state-building processes. My publications appear in Journal of Conflict Resolution, Review of International Organizations, Political Science Research and Methods, Explorations in Economic History, among others.
