About me

I am currently a PhD candidate in Computer Engineering at the University of Michigan, specializing in Computer Architecture and Electronic Design Automation (EDA). I am advised by Prof. Nathaniel Bleier, with previous mentorship from Prof. George Tzimpragos. I’m a proud member of CCG research lab. You may check my CV for details.

My research interests focus on computer architecture and electronic design automation, with particular emphasis on hardware-software codesign for machine learning applications. I am currently working on composing chiplet-based neural network accelerators.

I completed my B.Eng in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Shanghai Jiao Tong University in August 2023. During my undergraduate studies, I was fortunate to collaborate with distinguished researchers, Prof. Weikang Qian(SJTU) on stochastic computing and mixed circuits and Prof. Jieru Zhao(SJTU) on machine learning for HLS.
