I am currently an assistant research professor at the Institute for Network Sciences and Cyberspace at Tsinghua University. Before this, I was a postdoctoral research scientist at Network Management and Measurement Laboratory, Tsinghua University, working with Prof. Jiahai Yang.

I received my Ph.D. from the Institute for Network Sciences and Cyberspace at Tsinghua University under the supervision of Prof. Ying Liu. Before that, I received my bachelor degree at the Department of Computer Science and Technology, Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications (BUPT).

My current research topics include network architecture and protocol design, network measurement, and programmable networks.
