I am currently a Research Fellow (Postdoc) at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) working with Prof. Xiaohui Bei. I received my Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from the State Key Laboratory in the Internet of Things for Smart City (IOTSC) at the University of Macau, under the supervision of Prof. Xiaowei Wu. Prior to my Ph.D. program, I worked as a Research Assistant in IOTSC, also under Prof. Wu’s guidance. My academic background includes an M.Sc. degree from CUSP London at King's College London and a B.Eng. degree in Urban-rural Planning from Wuhan University. With a diverse background in STEM, design, and social science, I bring a unique perspective to my research. 

Research Interests

I am broadly interested in algorithmic game theory, computational economics, theoretical computer science, and urban informatics. Currently, my research interests span various topics in fair allocation problems, online bipartite matching, and mechanism design.
