About

I am now a third year Ph.D. student at sysnet Group, UCSD, working with Prof. Aaron Schulman. Before coming to UCSD, I worked in IIoT Group, SJTU, advised by Prof. Luoyi Fu and Prof. Xingbin Wang. I received my bachelor degree of Cyber Security from Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU).

I'm highly interested in Mobile networking, Internet Measurement, Internet of Things, Edge computing and Security. See my CV for more information.
