CV
I am a first-year Ph.D student at the University of Chicago. My academic interests lie in Computer Security. In particular, I am interested in studying Anti-censorship Internet Measurement, Infrastructure Systems (such as IoT), and privacy-preserving adversarial methods to defend against privacy violation attacks from commercial Machine Learning (ML) models - your privacy right matters and you should be empowered to defend yourself!
