About me

I’m a fifth-year PhD student in Computer Science at Zhejiang University under the supervision of Prof. Jinsong Han. I also work closely with Prof. Jun Han from KAIST.

My research interests lie at the intersection of security and mobile/wireless/sensing systems. Currently, my work spans applications in wireless sensing, visible light communication, and cyber-physical security, with a particular focus on the innovative analysis of physical signals to drive advancements in these areas. I have published papers in several top conferences, including ACM MobiCom, MobiSys, SenSys, and USENIX Security. I received my B.S. in Physics with honors at Zhejiang University in 2020.
