I'm a final-year PhD candidate in computer science at the Information Sciences Institute of University of Southern California (USC). I'm part of the the SEA Lab and advised by Prof. Kristina Lerman. I am interested in NLP, computational social science, and multimodal representation learning. Recently, I'm focused on the alignment & safety, and societal impacts of LLMs.
Previously, I received undergraduate degree in Communication Engineering from Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications. I've spent time at Tsinghua University working with Shutao Xia. During my PhD, I've interned at TikTok, Amazon, and DiDi Global.
I'm on the job market this year! If you are hiring and interested, drop me an email, I'm more than happy to chat :-)
