About
I am a third-year PhD candidate in Computer Science at William & Mary, luckily advised by Prof. Yixuan (Janice) Zhang. My research sits at the intersection of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Generative AI (GenAI). I am broadly interested in how LLMs reshape learning experiences across K-12 and undergraduate contexts, as well as how they impact coding practices and education.
Before my PhD, I obtained my M.S. in Computer Science and B.Eng. in Computer Science and Technology from New York University and Nankai University, respectively.
Outside of research, I enjoy motorsports (Formula 1 & endurance series) and reading.
