I am a Research Scientist at ByteDance in Singapore. I earned my Ph.D. in Computer Science in 2025 from The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), where I had the privilege of being advised by Prof. Zhi-Quan (Tom) Luo.
During my studies, I was a research intern at Microsoft Research and the Tencent AI & Robotics X Lab. I also had the valuable opportunity to collaborate with Prof. Tong Zhang and Prof. John Hopcroft.
My research aims to develop intelligent agents capable of reliably interacting with complex environments. By bridging foundational theory with scalable algorithms, I advance reinforcement learning, optimization, and large language model (LLM) reasoning to create systems for trustworthy decision-making.
