I am a 5th year Ph.D. student in the Computer Science Department at the University of Chicago and my advisor is Prof. Nick Feamster. And I received my Master of Science degree within Ph.D. at UChicago in the Summer of 2022 and my Bachelor of Engineering degree from Yingcai Honors College at UESTC.

Before coming to UChicago, I was the CEO of a start-up Dominity Security Co., Ltd. I also had my internship at LangSafe.ai, FedML, Virginia Tech, Qihoo 360, MSRA(short-term visit), KnowWhy, Tsinghua NISL.

My research interests lie in the intersection between ML systems, networking, security & privacy, and measurement. Typical scenarios I’ve explored include Cellular Networks, IoT, and CPS. My dream and what I constantly endeavor is to become a researcher, hacker, poet, and practical idealist.
