About Me
I'm a second-year Ph.D. candidate at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) 🌽 advised by Jiaqi Ma. During my PhD, I've had the immense delight of interning at Amazon AWS AI Lab 🗽 and National Institute of Informatics 🇯🇵. Previously, I obtained my Master degree from UIUC 🌽 and dual Bachelor degree from University of Michigan 〽️ and Shanghai Jiao Tong University 🇨🇳.
My current research focus is on trustworthy ML and data-centric AI, with the goal being to draw theoretical insights from practical problems and develop algorithms with provable guarantees and desirable properties such as efficiency, robustness, and fairness. Previously I have worked on graph neural networks and fast graph algorithms. Generally speaking, I hold a strong interest in theoretical stuffs that involves geometry.
