I am a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Industrial and Operations Engineering at the University of Michigan, where I have been working with Professor Uday V. Shanbhag since January 2025. I earned my Ph.D. from the Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering at Lehigh University, where I was fortunate to be advised by Professor Frank E. Curtis.

My research focuses on designing, analyzing, and implementing algorithms for solving large-scale nonlinear optimization problems that arise in fields such as machine learning. 

I received my Master of Science degree in Financial Operation Research from the University of Edinburgh in the UK in 2016 and my Bachelor of Economics degree from the University of International Business and Economics in  China in 2015.
