Overview


I study international trade and finance, climate change, and the US foreign economic policy in the Asia-Pacific region.

My book, Making Financial Globalization: How Firms Shape International Regulatory Cooperation (Oxford University Press, 2024), examines the interaction of business and politics in financial globalization.

I am currently working on my next book projects on climate change: (1) The Political Economy of Climate Change, and (2) The Geopolitics of Critical Minerals Supply Chain (with Kyle Beardsley and Pei-Yu Wei), under contract, Cambridge University Press: Elements in Globalization and Supply Chain Series.
