I am currently a Ph.D. student in Sociology. Before joining NUS, I obtained both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Sociology from Tsinghua University. My thesis focuses on productive aging patterns and well-being among older people in Europe, especially how this association is shaped by gendered life course and macro-level social contexts. I also study later-life planning, family dynamics, and living arrangements of older people in different contexts.
