I am a fourth-year PhD student at UC San Diego, advised by Prof. Farinaz Koushanfar. Previously, I received my bachelor's degree in Electronic Engineering from Shanghai Jiao Tong University. I enjoy building scalable, efficient, and secure algorithms for machine learning systems. Currently, my research interests include their applications in generative large language models.
