I am a Ph.D. student at the Provable Responsible AI and Data Analytics (PRADA) Lab at the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST), advised by Prof. Di Wang.

Before that, I was an algorithm engineer at the trustworthy AI research group at JD Explore Academy, JD.com, Inc. I received MPhil in Computer Science from The University of Sydney, advised by Prof. Dacheng Tao, and B.Sc in Mathematics from the South China University of Technology, advised by Prof. Chuhua Xian.

My research lies in trustworthy AI, especially the security and privacy aspects of machine learning. I am interested in using mathematical principles to identify and mitigate security and privacy risks in real-world machine learning systems.
