I’m an Academy Scholar (stipendiary postdoctoral fellow) at the Harvard Academy for International and Area Studies, housed at the Weatherhead Center for International Affairs at Harvard University. I’m a social demographer who studies family inequality and educational stratification. Broadly speaking, my research interests include 1) causes and consequences of demographic change and 2) the relationship between the “diversified” college expansion and social stratification. I am also working on 3) family formation among Asian Americans. I mainly focus on Japan and the United States.
