Welcome to my personal website!

I am a Distinguished Research Fellow in the School of Economics and Management at Tongji University. I earned my Ph.D. from Department of Information Systems at City University of Hong Kong, where I was supervised by Prof. Xin LI and Prof. J. Leon ZHAO.

My primary research interest lies at the intersection of Financial Technology (FinTech) and Information Systems (IS). I investigate several key domains, including crowdfunding, innovation management, intelligent marketing, and financial social media. To address these complex phenomena, I employ a multi-disciplinary methodological framework. My research integrates applied econometrics for causal inference with advanced computational techniques, including data mining, natural language processing (NLP), machine learning (ML), deep learning (DL), and social network analysis (SNA).
