• About Me

    I am Dr. Y. C., an experienced economics research consultant and business lecturer based in the UK, with over 20 years of expertise in economics, finance, marketing, and sustainability strategy. I have taught at leading UK universities, developed academic curricula, and worked with businesses to design evidence-based growth strategies.

    My career bridges academic research, industry consultancy, and public education, making complex business and economic concepts accessible to professionals, students, and the public. I am fluent in English, Cantonese, and Mandarin, enabling cross-cultural collaboration in global markets.

  • Research Interests & Expertise

    I focus on economics and business research that links theory to practical application, specialising in:

    1. Macroeconomic trends and their impact on industries.

    2. Sustainable consumption and green marketing strategies.

    3. Digital transformation, including AI, fintech, and online consumer behaviour.

    4. International business and cross-cultural market analysis.

    My work has been published in international journals, including Sustainability, and I actively seek collaborative research projects with universities, think tanks, and industry partners.
