I am an Associate Professor of Computer Science in the School of Computer Science and Tehnology at Nanjing Tech University, Jiangsu Provinice, China. Before joining Nanjing Tech University, I was a researcher in Futurewei (Huawei USA Research Center) at Santa Clara, CA. I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from University of Missouri-Kansas City. I also interned and NTT Service Intergration Lab at Tokyo, Japan.

I was the co-founder of a startup company focusing on Smart IoT which received an angle funding.

My research lies in the broad field of wired and wireless networks, focusing on optimizations driven networking design and algorithms. Currently, I focus on algorithmic design on Bigdata and machine learning.
