Dr. Hongjuan Zhou is a Professor of Practice in the School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences at Arizona State University (ASU) since fall 2018. She is an Associate of the Society of Actuaries. With a strong foundation in the insurance industry, she brings a wealth of practical experience to her role. Driven by a passion for mathematics, she received her Ph.D. in Mathematics from the University of Kansas in 2018. Her academic research interests include stochastic analysis, stochastic differential equations and the applications in financial mathematics and actuarial science. She published high-quality papers and delivered presentations at professional conferences. At ASU, she teaches a variety of actuarial courses and collaborates with other actuarial faculty to foster connections with actuarial organizations and insurance companies. She also conducts active research in the problems arising from practice and provides consulting service to the local industry.
