I am currently a Research Assistant Professor at TTIC. I was a postdoc at Harvard University hosted by Prof. Michael Mitzenmacher and received my PhD in 2019 from the University of Maryland under Prof. MohammadTaghi Hajiaghayi. You can find my resume here.


I have a broad interest in theoretical computer science and its applications in computational biology, machine learning, economics, and artificial intelligence. The emphasis of my research is on fine-grained algorithm design and algorithmic game theory.

Research highlights

Professional experience

I used to be very good at competitive programming. I won a Silver medal at IOI 2007, was a team member for IOI 2008 (didn't participate in the IOI due to visa issues), and was an ACM-ICPC worldfinalist two times. Also, I was a Topcoder red and I won a CF round.
