Ph.D. StudentSkirkanich Family Graduate Fellow 2023-2024

As a sociology Ph.D. student at the University of Pennsylvania, I specialize in education and gender inequality, employing quantitative approaches to explore these topics across diverse contexts such as East Asia (with a focus on Singapore) and the United States. My research ranges from the intricate dynamics of private supplementary education to gender gaps within educational systems. I am also interested in issues of parental involvement and the use of demographic methods.

By bridging academia and real-world applications, I aim to advocate for positive change towards a more equitable and inclusive society globally. Join me in unraveling the complexities of social structures and striving for meaningful impact.
