Sizhu Lu

Welcome to my homepage! I am a fourth-year Ph.D. student in the Department of Statistics, UC Berkeley. I am very fortunate to be advised by Professor Peng Ding. I am also very fortunate to be advised by Professor Ting Ye on some projects. Previously, I received my B.S. in Mathematics and Applied Mathematics and B.A. in Finance from Peking University. I also detoured to the world of finance and real estate after college and received my Ph.D. in Business Administration from Haas School of Business, UC Berkeley, where I was very fortunate to be advised by Professor Amir Kermani. Here are links to my Google Scholar profile and GitHub.
