I am a PhD student in Statistics at LSE, working under the supervision of Dr. Kostas Kalogeropoulos and Dr. Francesca Panero. Prior to joining the PhD programme, I completed an MSc in Statistics (Research) at the LSE Department of Statistics. I received my Bachelor’s degree in Statistics from Beijing Normal University - Hong Kong Baptist University United International College.

I am a big fan of Manchester City FC, too! Sometimes you might spot me in Manchester on weekends, especially hanging around near the Etihad Stadium.

Research

My research interests include Bayesian statistics, machine learning, and social statistics, as well as their applications in social sciences. If you are looking for a collaborator in academia or industry, I would be happy to connect.

1. ST107: Quantitative Methods (Statistics)
2. ST109: Elementary Statistical Theory I
3. ST411: Generalised Linear Modelling and Survival Analysis
