I am a second-year Ph.D. candidate at Case Western Reserve University, advised by Prof. An Wang and co-advised by Dr. Tu Ouyang. My research focuses on privacy and security in machine learning, specifically investigating privacy leakage in machine learning models/systems and developing privacy-preserving machine learning models/systems.

Prior to this, I received my bachelor’s degree from South China University of Technology, where I conducted research on spatial data privacy under the supervision of Prof. Hongyun Xu.

I am passionate about applying my research to real-world problems and look forward to internship opportunities and research collaborations that can advance the field of machine learning privacy and security.
