I am a first second-year PhD student in the Khoury College of Computer Sciences at Northeastern University. I am advised by Prof. Weiyan Shi and a member of the CHATS Lab.
Previously, I was an undergraduate student at University of Michigan (UMich), with a honors major in Computer Science and two minors in Mathmatics and Linguistics. I was fortunate to be advised by Prof. Lu Wang at LAUNCH Lab. I was also privileged to work closely with Prof. Zhijing Jin.
My research interest lies on building robust and socially responsible NLP systems that align with human needs and preferences. Currently, I’m particularly interested in:
- Social simulation: Understanding LLMs’ behavioral patterns and social reasoning in complex social scenarios.
- Human-AI alignment: Studying the gaps between human-human and human-AI interactions to better align LLMs with diverse human preferences and application scenarios.
