In my spare time, I enjoy watching soccer, tennis, and Formula 1 matches. I have been a fan of Liverpool FC since my childhood. During my studies at LSE in 2019, I decided to watch a Liverpool match and ended up choosing the semi-final second leg between Liverpool FC and Barcelona FC. It turned out to be the best live sports experience of my life, as Liverpool achieved a miraculous 4–0 comeback and went on to win the Champions League that year.

I also enjoy playing video games and often look for new research ideas in this market. My favorite genre is Japanese role-playing games, and I have been a fan of the Pokémon series since 2005. My Game of the Year for 2024 is shared by Black Myth: Wukong and Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance.
