Biography

Starting in Fall 2023, I will be joining the University of Waterloo as a PhD student supervised by Prof. Khuzaima Daudjee. I have been awarded a David R. Cheriton Graduate Scholarship.

My research interests lie in computer systems, machine learning, and cloud. I occasionally share my explorations in the systems and machine learning world on Zhihu in Chinese.

I earned my B.Eng degree in Computer Science from Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech) with the Summa Cum Laude (also known as Top 10 Graduate). At SUSTech, I was advised by Prof. Bo Tang, Xiao Yan, and Yuqun Zhang. I once worked for Tencent, Baidu, and RisingWave Labs.
