Marketing | Consumer Behavior | Yale School of Management
I am a PhD student in Behavioral Marketing at the Yale School of Management.
I study how consumers form judgments and make choices across a wide range of contexts. My research focuses on two primary themes:
The first examines how consumers revisit and reconstruct past experiences, and how these memories influence well-being and future intentions. I use multi-wave longitudinal experiments to track consumers over time.
The second investigates the intersection of brand trust and emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI) and augmented reality (AR), in shaping consumer attitudes and behavior.
Prior to my doctoral studies, I earned a BA in Communications and in Cinema and Media Studies from the University of Pennsylvania, and an MS in Applied Analytics from Columbia University.
