About Me
Currently, I am working with Prof. Yong Wang at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) as a Research Assistant. Starting this Fall, I will begin my PhD in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), where I will be advised by Prof. Arpit Narechania. Previously, I received both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees with honors in Computer Science and Technology from Sichuan University (SCU), under the supervision of Prof. Min Zhu.
My research interests revolve around human-computer interaction, with a focus on human-notebook interaction and the design of interactive, AI-powered tools that transform how data is communicated.
