🏄‍♀️ About Me

I am a software engineer at Allsee Technology, and a part-time research assistant at the University of Birmingham under the supervision of Prof. Jianbo Jiao. I am also fortunate to be collaborating with Prof. Yunchao Wei on ongoing research projects.

Previously, I completed MEng ECE @ UIUC and BSc ICS @ UoL & XJTLU. During my undergraduate studies, I was supervised by Dr. Erick Purwanto and Prof. Jie Zhang.
