I am an Assistant Professor in John Hopcroft Center for Computer Science at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. I am also a member of Basic Studies in Computing Science Lab (BASICS) at Shanghai Jiao Tong University.

I obtained a PhD degree from Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 2016, under the supervision of Prof. Yuxi Fu and Prof. Pinyan Lu. After that, I stayed in Institute of Theoretical Computer Science and Communications, The Chinese University of Hong Kong as a postdoctoral fellow from 2016 to 2018.

I work on theoretical computer science. Please visit my homepage for details of my research.

If you want to work with me, please send me an email.
