Bio: I'm currently a first-year Ph.D. student in Combinatorics and Optimization at University of Waterloo.
My research interest is in theoretical computer science and approximation algorithms.
My two wonderful advisors are Vijay Bhattiprolu, and Chaitanya Swamy.
Before coming to Waterloo, I received a master degree at the Johns Hopkins University, where Michael Dinitz patiently advised me researching in TCS.
I spent the best four years in Nankai University, where I worked with Zhenglu Yang and Sicheng Zhao on Natural Language Processing and Deep Learning, who gave me the greatest encouragement.
