I am an assistant professor in Innovation and Information Management at HKU Business School. I am fortunately advised by Professor Karthik Kannan and Jinyang Zheng from Krannert School of Management at Purdue University.
My research is about the dynamics of human behaviors in the machine-platform-crowd transformation. I use machine learning, econometrics, and structural modeling methods to study the transformational impacts of information technology on human behaviors.
I am currently seeking self-motivated PhD students and research assistants to join my team!
