About

I recently joined Google as a staff engineer on 2023/03. During 2017/10 and 2023/02, I worked at Facebook AI & Instagram, and led various personalization projects across Ads, Instagram, and marketplace, also research projects about sequence modeling, graph learning and fairness-aware recommendation. I obtained my PhD at Rutgers University on Sep 2017, advised by Prof. Dimitris Metaxas. During PhD, my research interest was around vision & multi-modality & reinforcement learning. During intership at FAIR, me and my mentor Yuandong Tian developed Darkforest Go bots at FAIR, covered by media including Wired and MIT Tech Review
