Hi!
I'm a PhD student at USC Information Sciences Institute and Department of Computer Science. I work at the PLUS lab advised by Dr. Nanyun Peng. My main research interest is natural language processing (NLP) especially constructing event schemas from unstructured information.
I received my bachelor's degree from the Department of Computing, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University in 2018 and I was an exchange student at the University of Maryland in 2016. I was fortunate to work at CUHK, UCSC, MIT and PolyU on dialogue systems, sentiment analysis, blockchain and educational tech.
