About Me

I'm a sixth year Ph.D. student in Department of Computer Science at Yale University. I am fortunate to be advised by Yang Cai. Before coming to Yale, I spent my first four years of graduate studies at McGill University, under the supervision of Yang. I'm glad to continue my study with him.


Before that, I did my undergraduate in Institute for Theoretical Computer Science at Tsinghua University.


My research interests are in mechanism design and algorithmic game theory. Here is my CV.


I'm seeking for postdoctoral and full-time job opportunities. Please contact me.
