About Me

I am a first-year CS Ph.D. student at UC Davis, co-advised by Professor Zhe Zhao and Professor Junshan Zhang. Before that, I obtained my Bachelor degree at The University of Hong Kong (HKU).

My research interests center on Large Language Models (LLMs) and Information Retrieval (IR), with a particular focus on developing generative models that align with human interactions and preferences (reinforcement learning, reward modeling), as well as on retrieving and reasoning over complex relational structures (recommender systems).
