I am a Ph.D. student in the Department of Data Sciences and Operations (DSO) at the University of Southern California (USC). I am advised by Professor Dennis Shen in the statistics group.

Prior to joining USC Marshall, I received my bachelor’s degree in statistics from the Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech).

My research interests include high-dimensional statistics, causal inference, and machine learning.
