I 'm  working  as  Research  Scientist in  ZJLab.  I'm named one of The Intelligent Computing Innovators China 2023 by MIT Techonology Review.
I co-founded TurboData, Inc. and  served as CEO.
I served as Chief Technology Officer at AsiaInfo Security.  I worked on  5G security as well as other products such as SOAR.
I worked as Director of Threat Research at Shape Security. Shape Security was acquired by F5 for $1B.
I worked as Research Scientist at DataVisor on big data anti-fraud, big data infrastructure and infrastructure security.
I worked as Staff Engineer with Lenx Tao Wei Dawn Song and Zheng Bu at FireEye on mobile security research and development, after our mobile security startup Ensighta got acquired by FireEye.
I worked with Professor Dawn Song on mobile security at UC Berkeley.
I got my Ph.D. in computer science, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign. My advisor is Professor Sam King.  I got my bachelor's degree from ChuKeChen Honors College, Mixed Class (majored in Computer Science), Zhejiang University. I got my master's degree in computer science from State Key Lab. of CAD&CG, Zhejiang University.

Research area: operating system, web browser, mobile security, big data security, 5G core network, 5G security, Computer Aided Design (CAD).

I am interested in applying system mechanisms from operating system, network and programming language fields to improve end user environments in aspects such as security, performance and reliability.

I am also interested in CAD and conducted research in CAD for about 5 years, with a master thesis on automatic solid model simplification.
