Hi, I am a third year PhD student in the Department of Statistics at University of California, Berkeley. I am very fortunate to be advised by Professors Peng Ding, Peter Bickel and Fang Han. I am also very fortunate to be advised by Professors Wei Sun, Matias Cattaneo on some projects. Previously, I received my master's degree from University of Washington in 2022, advised by Professor Fang Han, and my bachelor's degree from Zhejiang University in 2020. I was advised by Professor Lixin Zhang on my undergraduate thesis and Professors Deanna Needell, Hanbaek Lyu on my REU project. If you are interested in collaborating with me, feel free to contact me through email! |
