<hr>
I am a PhD student in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, where I am advised by <a href="https://webhome.cs.uvic.ca/~pan/" target="_blank">Dr. Jianping Pan</a>.
I obtained my MSc in Computer Science from the same university in 2023, and BEng in Computer Science and Technology from Zhejiang Gongshang University, China in 2017.
Since 2017, I spent four years working as a backend software engineer in startup companies in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shanghai" target="_blank">Shanghai</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hangzhou" target="_blank">Hangzhou</a>.
Previously, I conducted research on image dehazing during my undergraduate study.
My current research is primarily centered on various aspects of computer networking applications.
This includes measuring the performance of low-Earth-orbit satellite networks, exploring adaptive video streaming and new protocols such as multipath QUIC.
