I am currently a PhD student in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), and a member of iDEA Lab led by Dr. Hanghang Tong. I received my B.Eng from Beijing Jiaotong University and MS degree from CIDSE, Arizona State University.

My main research interest is large-scale graph data mining. My research domains include multi-network mining, subgraph matching, network embedding, knowledge graph, recommender system, etc.
