Hi! I am currently a PhD student at North Carolina State University, under the guidance of Prof. JUNG-EUN KIM. Previously, I worked as a machine learning scientist in Moffett AI, and was guided by the chief scientist and co-founder of Moffett.AI: Ian En-Hsu Yen. Before that, I got my master's degree from the CS department of San Jose State University in 2021 and was advised by Prof. Mark Stamp. I earned my bachelor's degree from Shandong University in 2016.
I will be joining the TikTok NLP Trust & Safety (TNS) team as a Research Scientist Intern in Summer 2026. Previously, in Summer 2025, I interned with TikTok Responsible Recommendation Systems (RRS) team, where I worked on safety-aware recommendation for multimodal LLM.
