I am a PhD student in the Department of Political Science at Yale. My research focuses on elite politics and elite speech, local governments, and politics and financial markets. Methodologically, I develop computational social science tools, especially text-as-data approaches using Large Language Models (LLMs) and Natural Language Processing (NLP), to measure political elite behavior and political speech. A major part of my research agenda examines municipal bond markets in the United States and China. I also work on side projects on other local-government economic outcomes, including pollution and growth, and on other markets such as prediction markets.
