About me

Hi! I received my B.S. degree in Computer Science from the Beijing Institute of Technology in 2025, where I was extremely fortunate to be advised by Prof. Rong-Hua Li, who has opened the doors to the fascinating world of graph theory for me!

I am excited to be starting my Ph.D. at the University of New South Wales (UNSW), under the supervision of Prof. Wenjie Zhang and Dr. Dong Wen.

My research interests lie in graph data mining, particularly in designing graph algorithms based on flow techniques and optimization problems. I am always excited to exchange ideas, so don't hesitate to contact me!
