I'm a final-year Computer Science Ph.D. student in the College of Computing at Georgia Institute of Technology, and my advisor is Prof. B. Aditya Prakash. My research aims to bridge public health with clinical decisions and focuses on public health, epidemiological modeling, and machine learning (ML). I have been a Ph.D. student at Georgia Tech since August 2019. Before this, I completed my undergraduate studies at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China, where I received my Bachelor's degrees in both Information Engineering and Finance and graduated with honors.

[I am on the 2023-2024 academic job market for a tenure-track faculty position now. Please feel free to let me know if there are any suitable positions.]
