Biography

I am a fifth-year PhD student in Computer Science at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). I am fortunate to be advised by Prof. Klara Nahrstedt at the MONET research group. My research interests lie at the intersection of systems and machine learning, with a focus on designing resource-efficient machine learning training and inference systems. Some applications I am currently working on include large-scale video analytics and federated learning.

Before joining UIUC, I got my bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering from the University of Hong Kong (HKU). I was fortunate to be advised by Prof. King-Shan Lui.

In the past, I have worked with Google, Meta and IBM Research.
