I am a Specially-Appointed Assistant Professor at Industrial Ecology Lab., Graduate School of Environmental Studies, Tohoku University, Japan. I received my Ph.D. in Economics from Kyushu University in 2020. My research interests include econometrics, applied econometrics, statistics, applied machine learning, and industrial ecology. I am currently working on the construction of a global supply chain database. I am also interested in the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy and the environment.
