About Me

Hi, I’m a junior undergraduate student. I am interested in understanding interaction and connection (between entities like agents, computers and humans). Currently, I’m working with Prof. Yujun Yan at Dartmouth College, focusing on Graph Learning. I’m also a member of the MSRA with Dr. Jiang Bian, working on Quantitative Finance.

I care about promoting open, collaborative, and reproducible research. I do not limit myself to specific techniques but instead always look for better solutions and good problems. My goal is to be a great professor for students in places like here. Yes, I love teaching and sharing knowledge.

In my spare time:

I have keen interests in visualization communication design and VI system. Everything should be able to be expressed or explained in vivid and simple ways. Anime, movies, and music are also my favorites. I have no interest in becoming a “successful” but boring guy, interests and passion is the key to a happy life. I also have plans to make one trillion dollars, email me for details😉.
