I am a PhD student in the Causal Learning and Reasoning Group at Carnegie Mellon University, advised by Prof. Kun Zhang and Prof. Peter Spirtes. My research interests lie at the intersection of causality and machine learning, with a focus on causal discovery (a.k.a. causal structure learning) and causal representation learning. I am also interested in the connection between causality and deep learning, and its application in solving real-world problems.

Previously, I obtained my master's degree from University of Toronto and bachelor's degree from Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. During my study, I have spent time at Microsoft Research, Google X, and Mila.
