I am a Senior Lecturer in the School of Accounting, Audit & Tax at UNSW Sydney. I have a range of interests in research at the intersection of accounting and finance, including voluntary disclosure, shareholder litigation and stock price crash risk. My works have been published in leading international journals, including Journal of Accounting Research, Journal of Accounting and Economics, and Accounting, Organizations and Society. I am also a co-founder of the Early Career Researchers Support Network (ECRSN), a network that aims to help early-career researchers to improve their social wellbeing and academic performance. Prior to joining academia, I worked as a financial analyst in China.
