I got my Ph.D. from University of Wisconsin-Madison advised by Prof. Paraschos Koutris. I study techniques to optimize (or show optimality for) relational queries.

In 2020, I received my B.S. in Math from National University of Singapore. There, I was advised by Prof. Jonathan Scarlett on neural architectural search.

[News] I become a Senior Applied Scientist at Microsoft Gray Systems Lab (Redmond) starting May 2025.
