I’m a first-year Ph.D. student in Computer Science at the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Harvard University. I am advised by Professor Minlan Yu. Before Harvard, I obtained my Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science at Peking University, and I’m fortunate to have worked with Professor Xin Jin during my undergraduate years.

My research is focused on networked systems. I want to understand the underlying principles of building efficient, reliable and agile software systems, especially in distributed and networked settings.
