I am currently a posdoctoral research scientist in the Data Science Institute at Columbia University, mentored by Prof. Yuqi Gu and Prof. Kaizheng Wang. I received my Ph.D. degree in 2023 from the Department of Mathematics at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, advised by Prof. Dong Xia.

I am broadly interested in developing methods and theories for high-dimensional matrix / tensor data with latent structures.
