Welcome to my website! I am an Assistant Professor at Hanyang University. I received my Ph.D. in Political Science from Boston University, and my research interests mainly lie in examining the political economy of finance.

​​

More specifically, my research focuses on mainly two issues. First, I look at the role of public finance in financial market development and creation focusing mainly on the East Asian region. Second, I look at how the policies of the US Federal Reserve have political repercussions on the policy choices of regional economies.  

​

My works have appeared, or are forthcoming in multiple academic journals such as the Review of International Political Economy, Contemporary Politics, Geopolitics, Pacific Review, International Relations of the Asia-Pacific, East Asia: an International Quarterly, among others.
