About Me

Hi there. I am a research faculty with the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Georgia Institute of Technology. I earned my Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Georgia Institute of Technology, where I was advised by Prof. Raheem Beyah and Prof. Shouling Ji. Prior to that, I obtained my Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from Zhejiang University in 2018.
