I am currently a PhD candidate in the Economics Department at Boston University. My concentrations are Finance and Econometrics. My primary research interest lies in the valuation of the early-stage firms with jump risk and understanding the volatility of those firms, and my secondary interest is international finance. During the years in my Ph.D. program, I have applied the quantitative techniques to the study of firm valuation, contingent claims valuations, portfolio management, risk management, investment strategies and other finance areas.

My teaching interests include undergraduate and graduate classes in investments, financial institutions, capital markets, corporate finance, macroeconomics and financial econometrics. I am working as Teaching Fellow for Professor Robert Merton's Functional and Strategic Finance class at Harvard Business School this semester.
