About Me

I am a third-year PhD student at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). I am fortunate to be advised by Professor Jingrui He. Before that, I completed my bachlor degree in Computer Science at University of Science and Technology of China (USTC). My research interest lies in fairness-aware machine learning, trustworthy machine learning, and graph mining. I also love classical music and kpop dance.
