Godfrey Tyler Scholarship in Economics

Joining us from: Beijing, China

DPhil in Economics (2023)

Hi! I am a doctoral student in Economics. I am interested in microeconomic theory and corporate finance. I majored in Mathematics and Economics at the University of Pennsylvania as an undergraduate and got my MPhil degree in Economic Research from the University of Cambridge. I previously conducted research on fraudulent behaviours in markets with asymmetric information.

I enjoy riding my bike and playing badminton in my spare time, and I am learning to play tennis. I am incredibly honoured to receive this generous scholarship from St Cross college, and I find our college beyond gorgeous. I look forward to meeting fellow scholars from our college and beyond.
