About Me

I am a second-year Ph.D. student in Computer Science at Georgia Institute of Technology, co-advised by and . My research focuses on network security, internet measurement, and usable security. The goal is to detect and address Internet-scale security threats/issues, considering human factors on security-critical components.

Prior to Georgia Tech, I graduated in Information Engineering from The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK). In my undergraduate, I spent a year at Lund University in Sweden and a summer semester at UC Berkeley in the US. At CUHK, I'm privileged to work with Sze Yiu Chau as a full-time research assistant, where I did research on the security of WPA2-Enterprise and PKCS1 v1.5 implementations, in collaboration with Omar Chowdhury and Endadul Hoque.
