I'm a Ph.D. student at CSE HKUST, supervised by Prof. Dongdong She and Prof. Shuai Wang. I have broad interests in security, spanning both traditional software/systems security and the security and capabilities of LLMs.
I am currently working at Qwen on research toward advancing the coding capabilities of LLMs, such as cyber. In my spare time, I am deeply interested in the security of LLM systems themselves, and I enjoy analyzing the security of LLM models and systems from both the training and systems perspectives. Previously, I was an intern at the RL team @ Moonshot AI (Kimi), where I worked closely with Tianyu Liu and Yingwei Ma.
I obtained my M.S. (2024) and B.S. (2021) from SJTU, where I spent seven wonderful years playing American football in Lions (national runner-up) and CTF in 0ops (world champion).
I expect to graduate in 2027 and am actively seeking industry positions. Please feel free to reach out via email at someone at example dot com or someone at example dot com :)
