About Me

I am a full-time Ph.D. student from Department of Computer Science, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-CH), under the supervision of Prof. Andrew Kwong. Prior to pursuing Ph.D. degree, I obtained my Master’s degree from South China University of Technology, advised by Prof. Lu Lu.

I am broadly interested in hardware security, with a focus on side-channel attacks and defenses and microarchitectural security. My current research particularly focuses on GPU architecture security and DRAM security. Beyond security, I am also interested in GPU computing, high-performance computing, and heterogeneous systems, especially problems at the intersection of performance, architecture, and security.
