About Me

I am an applied scientist at AWS AI Lab in New York. Before joining AWS, I obtained my Ph.D. in Computer Science Department at The Ohio State University, advised by Prof. Eric Fosler-Lussier (opens new window). Prior to OSU, I obtained my B.S. at Fudan University, advised by Prof. Xipeng Qiu (opens new window).

My research focuses on building robust and generalizable natural language interface to structured data (tables, databases, map images). Lately, I've been captivated by the fascinating world of generative AI and foundation models.

Feel free to reach out if you're interested in collaborating or just chatting about something!
