Publications and Work-in-Progress

I possess extensive academic training in economics, having completed both master's and doctoral degrees, amounting to over nine years of education in this field. Recently, my research endeavors primarily focus on health, behavioral, and development economics. 

As a health and social scientist, I am deeply passionate about delving into the intricate connections between socioeconomic and environmental factors and their influence on human health, particularly concerning chronic diseases such as obesity, cardiovascular diseases (including coronary heart disease, arrhythmia, and ventricular septal defect), senile chronic diseases, as well as, depression, liver fibrosis, and ADRD. I have been actively engaged in crafting several working papers exploring these critical areas of study.

In addition to my focus on health-related topics, I also engage in research on the determinants of confidence and investment decisions among households. I seek to understand the factors that prompt certain households to take risks and invest in financial instruments while others exhibit different patterns. Moreover, my research portfolio extends to issues within economic development, including the historical analysis of slavery in the United States and the examination of efficiency spillovers under the influence of corruption control.

The world is really big, and there are lots of questions to answer. It's great when different fields work together because it helps us understand things better. To make the most of this, we need beautiful eyes to see the possibilities and an open mind to help us make it happen. Cheers!
