I am a Ph.D. student in the Department of Computer Science at Purdue University, working with Prof. Xiangyu Zhang. My research interests focus on security and privacy in machine learning.
Before joining Purdue, I spent a wonderful year as a visiting graduate student at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, worked with Prof. Tao Xie and Prof. Tianyin Xu. I received an M.S. in Computer Science from the University of Texas at Dallas, worked with Prof. Wei Yang. I was a full-time research assistant worked with Prof. Wei Chen for 1.5 years at Zhejiang University before starting grad school.
Research Opportunities: I am always happy to discuss and brainstorm; if you’re a researcher/student interested in working on security, privacy, or trustworthy machine learning more generally, please reach out to me!
New! I am a co-organizer for the Machine Learning & Security Seminar at Purdue University. Please email me if you want to give a talk!
