About me

I am a Research Fellow at the National University of Singapore, working with Professor Yingcun Xia. I received my Ph.D. from the Department of Statistics and Data Science, Tsinghua University, where I was extremely fortunate to be advised by Associate Professor Qian Lin. Before that, I completed my undergraduate studies at the School of Mathematics and Statistics, Wuhan University.

My research interests include large-dimensional spectral algorithms, minimax rates of nonparametric regression problems, and sufficient dimension reduction.
