About Me
I am currently a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of British Columbia, hosted by Prof. Lele Wang. Prior to joining University of British Columbia, I was a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Toronto, hosted by Prof. Wei Yu. I received my Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the University of California San Diego, where I was extremely fortunate to be advised by
Prof. Young-Han Kim and Prof. Laurence B. Milstein. My research interests lie broadly in the intersections of information theory, wireless communication and signal processing.
Check out my CV for more details.
