Joonhyuk Yang Hello and welcome!

I am an Assistant Professor of Marketing at the University of Notre Dame’s Mendoza College of Business. My research focuses on unlocking value from the data firms already generate to grow markets responsibly, improving business performance while benefiting customers. By developing predictive and causal designs intended for operational deployment, my current work addresses managerial and policy questions surrounding financial inclusion, digital platforms, and AI governance.
