I am currently a Postdoc Researcher in the Algorithms Group at Microsoft Research, Remond. Previously, I completed my Ph.D. at the University of Washington where I worked in the theory group in the Paul G. Allen School of Computer Scienc​e & Engineering. I was fortunate to be advised by Yin Tat Lee.​ Before that, I got my B.S. from Tsinghua University where I majored in Mathematics and Physics.

​

My research interests lie broadly in algorithm design in continuous and discrete optimization. Most recently, my research focused on convex optimization and its applications, submodular function minimization, and discrepancy theory.
