About me

avatar

I am currently a third-year Ph.D. student in College of Computing and Information Science at Cornell University, advised by Prof. Cheng Zhang. My current research interests cover a wide range of ubiquitous computing, sensing systems, wearable devices, and AI.
I graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in School of Electronic Information and Electrical Engineering from Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU), P.R. China.
