I am a fifth-year PhD student in Computer Science at University of Southern California. I am very fortunate to be advised by Prof. Haipeng Luo. Currently, I am a research intern at DeepMind in London, hosted by Yasin Abbasi-Yadkori. I received my B.S. from National Taiwan University, double majoring in Electrical Engineering and Mathematics. My research interests lie in theoretical machine learning and algorithmic game theory.

I am expected to graduate in May 2023 and am looking for a full-time position starting mid-2023.
