I am a tenure-track assistant professor in Operations & Logistics Division at the Sauder School of Business, University of British Columbia. I am also grateful to be a faculty member at the Institute of Applied Mathematics (IAM) at UBC.

Previously, I was a postdoctoral researcher in Department of Management Science and Engineering (MS&E) at Stanford University, hosted by Prof. Jose Blanchet. I received my Ph.D. degree in Department of Systems Engineering and Engineering Management from the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) in 2021, where I was fortunate to be advised by Prof. Anthony Man-Cho So. Prior to joining CUHK, I obtained my bachelor degree in Statistics from Chongqing University.
