I am a final year Ph.D. student at Princeton University working with Professor Miklos Racz. My research interests lie broadly in probability, high-dimensional statistics, and combinatorial statistics. Specifically, I study random graphs with latent geometric structure with applications to network science.

Previously, I was a graduate student at UC San Diego advised by Professor Lawrence Saul, co-advised by Professor Geoffrey Voelker and Professor Stefan Savage. I completed my undergraduate study at Tsinghua University under the supervision of Professor Jun Zhu.

I worked on Google Knowledge Graph and Google Ads at Google in the Bay Area during the summers of 2016 and 2018. I also interned at Microsoft Research Asia from April to November 2012.
