Nice to meet you! I am currently a Ph.D. student at The Ohio State University, advised by Prof. Xueru Zhang. Currently, my research interests lie in (large) visual-language models, multi-modal learning, trustworthy AI (fairness and privacy), and distributional shifts.

Prior to that, I received my Bachelor Degree in Computer Science from East China University of Science and Technology in 2021 and had a short-term study at University of Chinese Academy of Sciences. I was a research assistant at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, where I gladly worked with Prof. Yangming Zhou.
