About Me

I am a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at Virginia Tech, working under the guidance of Prof. Dan Williams. My research interests span operating systems and cloud systems. Before joining Virginia Tech, I earned a Master’s degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Duke University and Duke Kunshan University, and a Bachelor’s degree from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen.

I have been fortunate to collaborate with Dr. John Dolan and Ms. Yiwei Lyu at Carnegie Mellon University, as well as Dr. Yi Chen at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen, before beginning my Ph.D. studies.
