Bio

I am a third-year Ph.D. student in Computer Science at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) advised by Dr. Jacob Whitehill. My research centers on speech and multimodal processing, and their applications in educational scenarios.

I worked as a machine learning engineer at Kuaishou Technology (Beijing) in the group of user profiling from Jul 2021 to Nov 2022. During my time in Kuaishou, I was in charge of the user profession project and live-stream recruiting project.

Before joining Kuaishou, I received my Master of Science in Computer Science degree from WPI in 2021, and was accepted as a member of Upsilon Pi Epsilon (UPE). Before that, I received my bachelor degree from University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) in 2019, majoring in Computer Science and Technology.
