BIO

I am an industrial organisation economist working at the intersection of digital markets and the smart city. I use administrative and platform data to study how algorithms and policy rules govern search, matching, pricing, and allocation, with a focus on transportation systems and public housing.

 

I am an Assistant Professor (Presidential Young Professor) at the Department of Strategy & Policy at the National University of Singapore (NUS) Business School. I am also a recipient of the Social Science and Humanities Research Fellowship under the Social Science Research Council of Singapore.

 

Previously, I was a Presidential Fellow at the NUS Business School, during which I spent a postdoctoral stint at the Cowles Foundation at Yale University. I obtained my PhD from Princeton University after formative years at the University of Chicago and Washington University in St. Louis.
