ACCOUNTING AND AUDITING

Since 2018, Accounting and Auditing

I am a Ph.D. candidate in accounting and will be on the 2023-2024 job market.
My research focuses on financial accounting and capital markets, specifically corporate disclosure. Using archival data and natural language processing techniques, my current work examines how various forms of corporate disclosure, such as financial and ESG reports, are influenced by retail and institutional investors, and how corporate disclosure plays a role in investment decisions or information intermediaries' outputs. In the future, I will continue to explore innovative communication channels that companies use to engage with often-overlooked stakeholders such as retail investors, customers, and employees.
