Assistant Professor of Economics, Konkuk University

I am an applied microeconomist working on labor, public, and health economics, the economics of AI and automation, and economic geography. I use large administrative and survey data from Korea to study how public policy and technological change affect work, health, and regional economies.

Before joining Konkuk University in 2024, I was a Research Fellow at the Korea Institute of Public Finance (KIPF). I received my Ph.D. in Economics from Michigan State University in 2019.
