About

Yoon Choi

Hi! My name is Yoon! Welcome to my blog! I am a PhD candidate in Economics at University of Washington (UW). My current research focuses on estimation of network formation models, casual inference on social networks and development of quantile regression estimator for handling missing data. I am also interested in (non)convex optimization.

Before coming to UW, I earned a BA in Spanish Language and Literature at Korea University, and a MS at Georgia State University.

During my downtime I listen to music from jazz to British Indie music. Music is my life!
