Hi there!

My name is Yiwei (pronounced Ee-way), and I am a Ph.D. candidate in Economics at Cornell University.

My primary research interests are in theoretical and applied econometrics, with a focus on causal inference.

I am advised by Francesca Molinari, Jörg Stoye, and José Luis Montiel Olea.

Before joining Cornell, I obtained a BA summa cum laude in Mathematics and Economics from the University of Richmond.
