Hi, this is Steve.

I’m originally from Hong Kong and currently based in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Economist, dog lover, occasional hiker and pretty good chef.

[More updates are coming as work allows]

I am a macro-economist at UN Economic Commission for Africa. Writing this website started when I was in PhD programme in Geneva, it continues to keep my messy folders from past works organized. Should there be anything helpful to your project, be it data source(s) or code(s), please go ahead and use them. Nevertheless, usual disclaim: all content here are views of my own and they do not represent my employer.

If you are also a dog lover, I’d encourage you to scroll further down. Otherwise, proceed to other pages.
