About

I am a PhD candidate from School of Accounting, Auditing and Taxation. I completed my bachelor and honours degree in UNSW. I currently focus on accounting practices surrounding Research and Development (R&D) expenditures, exploring how these financial activities are reported and their implications on financial statements. Additionally, I am investigating analyst earning forecasts, examining how anticipations about future earnings are shaped by various accounting methods and the potential biases in these predictions.
