Intro

I am a first year PhD student in Computer Science at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), co-advised by Prof. Karrie Karahalios and Prof. Hari Sundaram. My current research focuses on collective decision making mechanism design and decision making through data visualizations. During my Masters at UIUC, I worked with Prof. Aditya Parameswaran and Prof. Karrie Karahalios on the Dataspread Project. My general research interest investigates how human interacts with and make decisions through technology-mediated instruments. I am a full-stack web developer and a technology educator when not doing research. Read more about me here.

I publish most of my blog posts in Traditional Chinese as I realized the lack of translated resources in the community. However, I detailed my past projects in English here, take a look!

This is my CV. I'm looking for 2021 summer research oppertunities!
