Research Experience
Currently an IFDS postdoc fellow at the University of Washington, working with Dmitriy Drusvyatskiy and Maryam Fazel.
Education
PhD: Computer Science from UCSD, advised by Mikhail Belkin; BS: Mathematics from Zhejiang University.
Background
Research Interests: optimization and mathematical foundations of machine learning. Research focuses on understanding the dynamics of over-parameterized neural networks, particularly in the Neural Tangent Kernel (NTK) and feature learning regimes.
Miscellany
Currently on the job market for full-time positions.
