Right now I am an Associate Professor at Xiamen University Malaysia. Before that, I was an  invited Researcher at IHES, Bures-sur-Yvette, France. Previously, I was Postdoctoral Fellow  at MSRI - Berkeley, CA in fall 2009. Prior to that, I was  a  Visiting  Assistant Professor  at Texas A&M University, College Station 2010-2013,    and a  Guest Researcher at  Max Planck Institute for Mathematics  in Bonn, Germany June-December 2013,  and then an Assistant Professor of mathematics at  School of Mathematics, Korea Institute for Advanced Study (KIAS), 2014- 2018.

The primary focus of my research  lies in the areas of complex algebraic geometry,  computational algebraic geometry,  tropical geometry, complex analysis,  combinatorics, deformation of singularities,  and (co)amoebas  of complex varieties.
