I am currently a PhD student of Department of Mathematics of University of Washington.

My research area is Optimization.

My advisors are Professor Maryam Fazel, Professor Rekha Thomas and Professor Paul Tseng.

This is my CV.

 

Background

 

I received my Bachelor degree in 2004 from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, Department of Mathematics.

I got my MPhil degree in 2006 in the same department under the supervision of Professor Kung Fu Ng.

Then I came to University of Washington to continue with my PhD.
