I'm an assistant professor of finance at the UChicago Booth School of Business. My research covers topics such as real estate markets, household finance, banking and financial intermediation, and crypto/DeFi. My CV is here. You can reach me at anthony.zhang@chicagobooth.edu, or DM me on Twitter, Telegram, or Wechat.
If you're an undergrad or grad student at UChicago, I'm also occasionally hiring for part-time RA work. Shoot me an email if you're interested!
