Welcome to Kaicheng’s home page!

I’m a PhD candidate in Economics at Michigan State University. My research interest lies in econometrics, with a focus on but not limited to high-dimensional methods for panel and times series data, robust inference for panel models, fixed-smoothing inference, unobserved heterogeneous effects, discrete choice models, and endogeneity. I am on the 2024-2025 job market.

I also love national parks ⛺ and board games ♜.
