Greetings!

I’m Xiaonan (“Shee-ow-Nahn”), or Steve. I am a PhD candidate in economics at the University of Rochester. My Ph.D. research is supervised by Mark Bils. I am on the 2024-2025 job market.

Research Interets: Macroeconomics, Labor Market, Search and Matching.

My research combines empirical and quantitative methods, often leveraging micro-data to explore the dynamics between workers and firms in frictional labor markets. I investigate how these interactions influence macroeconomic outcomes.
