About

I am currently an engineer at OKX, focusing on on-chain block analysis across multiple blockchain networks.

I was a MPhil student in Computer Science at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) supervised by Amir Goharshady. Prior to that, I also received my Bachelor’s degree from HKUST with Computer Engineering as my major and Big Data Technology as my minor.

Previous Research

I was a member of the ALPACAS Research group, which is led by my supervisor and focuses its research on Algorithms, Logic, Program Analysis, Cryptocurrencies and Smart contracts.

My research focus lied within the intersection of Cryptography and Blockchain, in which I designed and implemented secure blockchain protocol by leveraging various cryptographic and game-theoretic tools. I also worked on the cryptographic tools themselves to improve their security. Besides, I’m also interested in and had numerous projects and internship experiences related to AI and software engineering.
