I am a third-year Ph.D. student in the Department of Computer Science at Johns Hopkins University. My advisor is Dr. Scott Smith and I am a member of The Programming Languages Laboratory. I got my joint bachelor’s degree from Fudan University and University College Dublin in 2013 and master degree from JHU in 2018. My one-page CV is here (updated Oct 2020).
My research interests span several aspects of programming languages. I believe programming languages can provide solutions to problems in other areas of computer science. I am active in our lab’s weekly seminar and happy to chat about them.
I am the system administrator of our lab.
Before graduate school, I took several jobs in start-ups and freelance work, mostly in full-stack web programming.
