About Me

Hi, I’m a 2nd-year PhD student advised by Prof. Junjie Hu at Computer Science department of the Univeristy of Wisconsin-Madison.

Previously, I was a visiting student at SALT lab in my gap year, coadvised by Prof. Diyi Yang from Stanford Univeristy and Prof. Junjie Hu from the Univeristy of Wisconsin-Madison. I received my B.Eng. degree from the Department of Software Engineering, Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU). During my undergraduate years, I worked as a research intern in X-LANCE Lab of SJTU, coadvised by Prof. Mengyue Wu, Prof. Lu Chen, and Prof. Kai Yu. Our work mainly focuses on the dialogue system for depression diagnosis.

I have broad research interests including social NLP and NLP for social good. More specially, I’m enthusiastic about research topics which try to integrate sociology and psychology to create more informative and empathetic machine learning models, and topics which have a positive impact on the society.

Looking for research internship for Summer 2025!
