Hi there! I am a member of PolyU NLP Group. I obtained my PhD degree from The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, supervised by Prof. Maggie Wenjie Li. During the spring and summer of 2024, I visited the SLED Lab at University of Michigan, where I was so honored to work with Prof. Joyce Chai.

Prior to that, I received my MSc and BEng degrees from the School of Computer Science and Engineering, South China University of Technology. During my graduate studies, I was fortunate to be co-advised by Prof. Min Yang at SIAT, Chinese Academy of Sciences.
