About me

I am currently a Ph.D. student of the Department of Computing, Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU), under the supervision of Prof. Qing Li and Dr. Wenqi Fan. Before joining the PolyU, I received both a Master’s degree (MPhil in Engineering) and a Bachelor’s degree (B.Eng. (Hons) in Electrical Engineering) from the University of Sydney in 2023 and 2020, respectively. My research interest covers Recommender Systems, Natural Language Processing, and Deep Reinforcement Learning. I am always welcoming collaboration from solid partners.
