Hi 💚! I am a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at Dartmouth College, advised by Prof. Soroush Vosoughi. My research interests broadly lie in the application of recommender systems (e.g., graph-based collaborative filtering, click-through-rate prediction) and graph representation learning over various domains (e.g., healthcare, mobile application promotion). In summer 2024, I was fortunate to intern at Microsoft Bing Places as a data scientist intern.

I have a very sweet tuxedo cat named Yaya. He was born in Chirstmas 2021, and was adopted by me in March 2023.
I named him Toothless (also Yaya, 'tooth' in Mandarin) after Toothless in How to Train Your Dragon, one of my favorite animations.
My favorite director is Tim Burton and I costumed myself Wednesday Adams this Halloween. My favorite artist is Taylor Swift, and I have been to her concerts in Shanghai (1989), Pittsburgh (Reputation), and Chicago (The Eras). I am also a fan of KPop. Shout out to New Jeans, Aespa, Twins, and other wonderful girl groups 📣!
