I am a final-year PhD candidate in the Department of Computer Science at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) and a member of IDEA Lab led by Dr. Hanghang Tong. My research interests mainly lie in large-scale data mining and machine learning on graphs, with a special focus on understanding their trustworthiness. Prior to joining UIUC, I obtained my MCS degree in Computer Science at University of Virginia and BEng degree in Telecommunications Engineering at Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications.

Starting from August 2023, I will join the Department of Computer Science at the University of Rochester. This page will no longer be updated. Please see my new personal website here .
