Welcome!

I am a Ph.D. candidate in Sociology at UCLA, with concurrent M.S. training in Statistics and Data Science. My research examines life-course inequality in work and family using causal inference and machine learning methods. My work has been recognized with competitive fellowships and awards, including the Kwanjeong Overseas Scholarship (2019–2024), multiple UCLA fellowships, and an Honorable Mention for the American Sociological Association (ASA) Student Paper Award (2025).
