Hi!
Hi!
I am a PhD candidate in Computer Science at Northeastern University, where I am fortunate to be advised by Rajmohan Rajaraman.
Before coming to Boston, I completed my MSc. in Computer Science from the University of Victoria, where I was advised by Valerie King. I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of Hong Kong, during which I was lucky to spend a year abroad at the University of Chicago.
I am broadly interested in theoretical computer science and algorithms. My past and current research is on online, dynamic and distributed algorithms, and algorithms with predictions. Most of my work deals with obtaining provably fast and competitive algorithms in the face of uncertainty and evolving inputs.
Here is a CV.
