New York, NY

I am a Ph.D. student in Electrical and Computer Engineering at New York University since August 2024, advised by Prof. Sai Qian Zhang. I began my doctoral studies in August 2024. Prior to that, I received my B.S. from Peking University, where I was fortunate to be advised by Prof. Yufei Ma. I also had the pleasure of working as a research intern at the Computer Systems Laboratory at Cornell University, under the supervision of Prof. Zhiru Zhang.

My research interests lie in machine learning, computer architecture, efficient AI, software/hardware co-design, and virtual reality (VR/AR).
