About Me

I am an associate professor in the Institute for Theoretical Computer Science at Shanghai University of Finance and Economics. The institute is part of the School of Computing and Artificial Intelligence.

I received my PhD from the Department of Computer Science at Cornell University, under the supervision of Professor Robert Kleinberg . I was then a postdoc at Microsoft Research, New England Lab, and later at Caltech, Computing and Mathematical Sciences. I was assistant professor in the Department of Computer Science of the University of British Columbia from 2016 to 2020.

My research takes a computational perspecitve on problems arising from economic contexts. I am also interested in theoretical computer science in general.
