Hi! I am a tenure-track Assistant Professor at the Department of Computer Science, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Previously, I was a postdoctoral researcher at Columbia University, hosted by Toniann Pitassi and Richard Zemel. I completed my Ph.D. in the Theory of Computation group at Harvard University under the guidance of Cynthia Dwork. Prior to Harvard, I received my B.Sc. in Mathematics from Chu Kochen Honors College, Zhejiang University. 

I am broadly interested in problems at the frontier of machine learning, statistics, and theoretical computer science. My research mainly focuses on establishing theoretically rigorous and practically useful frameworks to tackle safety, reliability, and social problems in modern AI.

I am looking for self-motivated students to work with. For more details, please click here.
