Research

My research primarily uses empirical data to study the social and economic impact of emerging phenomena driven by technology innovations in online platforms, such as social media, e-commerce, gig economy, and digital health platforms. I also have a keen interest in developing novel econometric methods to address statistical challenges facing empirical researchers.
