I am an Associate Professor of John Hopcroft Center for Computer Science at Shanghai Jiao Tong University since 2021, working in the field of theoretical computer science. I obtained my Ph.D. (2016~2020) from the Department of Computer Science at the University of Hong Kong, Supervised by Dr. Zhiyi Huang. Before that, I got my B.E. from the College of Computer Science and Technology at Zhejiang University (2012~2016). During my undergraduate study, I started to be interested in theoretical computer science when I joined the research group of Prof. Guochuan Zhang.

My research focuses on Online Algorithms and Approximation Algorithms. I am dedicated to designing algorithms with provable guarantees for real-world applications and advancing general mathematical frameworks for analyzing their performance.
