About me

I am an Industrial Engineering PhD student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, advised by Prof. Stephen Wright.

Before coming to Madison, I received my B.S. in Mathematics at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC).

My current research interests are machine learning, non-convex optimization and differentially private optimization methods.
