About Me

I am currently fascinated by how technologies in the AI era can fully unleash their potential, especially in terms of corporate operational value and human-AI collaboration. At present, I am actively seeking PhD opportunities in the fields of OM/MIS at business school. If you are interested in my experiences or have suitable opportunities, please feel free to reach out to me.

Previously, I worked in an Internet giant for 3 years. I graduated from School of Information Science Technology, ShanghaiTech University (上海科技大学信息学院) with a master’s degree in 2021, advised by Yuanming Shi (石远明) and Yong Zhou(周勇); and from the School of Computer Science and Technology, Xidian University (西安电子科技大学计算机学院) with a bachelor’s degree in 2018, advised by Xiaoke Ma (马小科).
