Welcome,

My name is Yumin Hong (pronounced as ‘you mean’!)

🎓 I am a doctoral candidate in the Economics department at The University of Texas at Austin.

💼 Currently on the job market for 2025–2026.

🔍 My job market paper (to update late Sept) investigates the mental health effects of heat exposure in Mexico, leveraging administrative hospital records and reanalysis-based climate data. This work forms part of a broader research agenda on how environmental change shapes health outcomes and how policy interventions can mitigate these impacts.
