About
I study the politics of international trade. My current research investigates foreign corporate interests in U.S. elections. I also have a keen interest in U.S.-China trade relations, and wrote on the history and development of various trade remedy measures targeted against nonmarket economy China. Prior to joining the program, I worked at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (South Korea), and conducted research at the Korea Institute of Public Finance and the Korea Institute for International Economic Policy.
