About Me

I am a Computer Science Ph.D. student at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), advised by Prof. Han Zhao. Previously, I obtained my dual bachelor’s degree in Data Science from the University of Michigan (UM) and in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU).

My research interest is centered around trustworthy machine learning. I currently work on i) improving the multi-task capabilities of foundation models and ii) multi-objective LLM alignment. Previously, I have also worked on domain adaptation/generalization and multimodal learning. In 2023 summer, I worked as an applied scientist intern at Amazon, focusing on multi-task pretraining of foundation models and instruction tuning for multimodal retrieval.
