I am a first-year PhD student in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Hong Kong (HKU), supervised by Prof. Reynold Cheng. I also work closely with Prof. Sihem Amer-Yahia from the CNRS and Prof. Laks V.S. Lakshmanan from UBC. My research focuses on Graph Hypothesis Testing, and I have a strong interest in exploring various graph-related problems. I am open to research cooperation and welcome any collaboration invitations via email.

I graduated with a first-class honours degree in Mathematics and Decision Analytics from the University of Hong Kong. My graduation project was supervised by Dr. Adela Lau from the Department of Statistics and Actuarial Science. Additionally, I participated in the 2022 RIPS program organized by NUS IMS, where I conducted research with Grab.
