Biography
I pursued my PhD at the Department of Public & International Affairs at CityUHK. I was awarded the Dissertation Fellowship in July 2024 by the China-America Association for Public Affairs (CAAPA). I received my degree in October 2024 and took a postdoctoral position at the Centre for Public Affairs and Law (CPAL), CityUHK.
My research primarily focuses on behavioral public administration and computational social sciences, with an emphasis on citizen-government relationships and public e-service delivery. From massive data analysis to self-reported data analysis, I have developed my own research path: exploring patterns in big data and further studying the mechanisms underlying these patterns through field, online, and laboratory experiments.
