About Me

The first human capable of photosynthesis :)

Hi! I’m a second-year Ph.D. student in Computer Science at George Mason University (GMU), fortunately co-advised by Prof. Bo Han and Prof. Songqing Chen. Before that, I got my B.Eng. in Computer Science and Technology from Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST).

Please feel free to contact me for any questions, collaborations, or just connections.
