About
I am a first-year Ph.D. student at UIUC, advised by Prof. Fan Lai. I’m broadly interested in Machine Learning Systems and efficient ML. Recently, I’ve become increasingly interested in Physical AI and Robotics, especially robot learning and the systems that make training and deploying embodied models efficient.
Previously, I was a software engineer at ByteDance, working on ML training systems and inference on TPUs.
Before that, I earned an M.S. in Computer Science at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, where I was also advised by Fan Lai, focusing on Machine Learning Systems.
I earned dual bachelor’s degrees from the University of Michigan and Shanghai Jiao Tong University. At Michigan, I had the privilege of working with Mosharaf Chowdhury and Amber Liu on Large Language Model (LLM) inference.
Here is my CV.
I’m always happy to chat, whether it’s about research, a potential collaboration, or anything ML systems. Feel free to drop me an email!
