Emily Jin is a former Research Associate for the Energy, Economics, and Security Program at CNAS. Her research focuses on U.S.-China competition over regional influence and global order.

In addition to U.S.-China competition, she studies policy at the intersection of American economic resilience and national security. She has testified before the United States Congress on the national security implications of China’s development of alternative financial rails and instruments.

She has prior work experience at the Export-Import Bank of the United States, the Department of Commerce, and the Center for Strategic and International Studies.
